Research direction

Start at the Get-DbContext command and its Format-Table call, then review the linked PowerShell formatting-file documentation. Done means the command retains the original objects for further scripting while still presenting the output in a readable format.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

area-tools

The Format-Table call doesn't return the original objects so you can't use them for further scripting. I think we can use a formatting file to make it both pretty and scriptable.
