I don't really see why this change is useful, and it looks like it could break scripts etc. that scrape sndstat.

I find it easier to use it to test paths this way, otherwise the application will have to slice the input string in order to match this format. However, I do not really mind to abandon this patch if you think it'd be more of a problem than help.
