This is not a complex field to parse and output in whatever format. I don't see any
value in leaving it octal just to save that amount of work to frontends. I mean, if a
frontend can't parse a decimal number, how in the world does it use the rest of the MI. ;)

To the doc change suggested by Eli, I added a precision about the base of the value.
Including the doc change and the printing in decimal, does it look good ?

See updated patch below.
