could you please shape the output the same way we do
for other events, currently you display namespaces like:

  0 0x1848 [0xd0]: PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES 3006/3006 - nr_namespaces: 7 [net: 3/0xf0000081, uts: 3/0xeffffffe, ipc: 3/0xefffffff, pid: 3/0xeffffffc, user: 3/0xeffffffd, mnt: 3/0xf0000000, cgroup: 3/0xeffffffb]

it also screws the less output of perf report -D for me..

usually we do multiple lines output, like:

1941502405539 0x1f48 [0x28]: PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE(IP, 0x2): 3006/3006: 0x55d47fdf2436 period: 422589 addr: 0
 ... thread: ls:3006
 ...... dso: /usr/bin/ls
