Yes, its a big annoyance with unnecessary  templatization in this file. The 
natural point of "print_final.." would be in register_command, but I cannot 
(easily) query values there because value is T. So I cannot just do a "if type 
is uintx and option is Memstat and value is print then do xxx".

This code would gain IMHO by being dumbed down. A multi-type value can just as 
well be expressed with a union, no templates needed. Especially since we keep 
the type info around at runtime anyway.
