Power Platform CLI: output setting

[Laskewitz]

I would love to have a user setting for output, so that you can easily switch between markdown or json output. This would also change the need for having to add --json to all commands that offer json output.

Totally this! In CLI for Microsoft 365 we opted for a --output property that allows us to support json, md, csv and text. Working with CLI's there are a lot of times you want to work with json but for quite a few listing scenarios life is easier if you can output to csv or md and quickly printing when you are working with a colleague the text output is a life saver!

Totally has my upvotes 👍

Oh and in addition it would be really awesome if you would be able to set a default output mode as a global setting preventing one to keep adding --output json to each command when working with more complex scripts.

Definitely need json output format to write toolling on top of PAC CLI. It is very difficult to parse tabular fixed width responses.
