Why is this not the default queryformat for x86_64? It would cut down

And I do not see what it would hurt to make it default in all cases if
it complicates things to make it default for only x86_64. It's fairly
simple to add this to your .rpmmacros, but the people who will know to
do this will already know about the dual-arch stuff.
Because changing the expected output of rpm -q is a bad bad thing.
Don't do that. Of course people shouldn't be screen scraping the output
or relying on it w/out doing their own --qf for ensured stability,
people do anyway, and we'd rather not break all their scripts.
