Comment (by cboos):

 I did those changes not in the strict perspective of one-liners,
 but in the perspective of having a compact wiki output of the whole wiki
 text,
 i.e. usually what you would get if you don't do a `shorten_line` on the
 input.

 One situation where it would be useful is to display the full changeset
 in the Timeline, as some of my users requested (and there's still an open
 ticket for that, #48; that would be a configurable setting, of course).

 In that use case, I think showing the processor name is valuable
 information.
 E.g. you could see if there's a `{{{#!diff...}}}` or a piece of code
 `{{{#!python...}}}` in the text, whereas only showing an ellipsis would
 completely hide that information.

 Maybe the level of block simplification could be set in the
 `OneLinerFormatter.format` method.
 For real one-liners (in combination with `shorten_line`), what you
 proposed
 is better, but for full compact output, I'd prefer my way.
