Print 'handle' attribute in tables, when listing via '-a' option

For eg.
nft list ruleset -a

table ip test-ip4 {
	chain input {
		ip saddr 8.8.8.8 counter packets 0 bytes 0 # handle 3
	}
 # handle 1}
table ip filter {
	chain output {
		tcp dport ssh counter packets 0 bytes 0 # handle 4
	}
 # handle 2}
table ip xyz {
 # handle 3}

I'm wonderning if it wouldn't be easier (for something parsing "nft list ruleset -a" 's output) to have the " # handle ..." after the closing brace instead of before. It makes sence to consider "#" as a start of comment until end of line, and in such case the last "}" would be in the comment and missing (for something choosing to ignore all such "comments").

So the example would become instead:

nft list ruleset -a

table ip test-ip4 {
	chain input {
		ip saddr 8.8.8.8 counter packets 0 bytes 0 # handle 3
	}
} # handle 1

What do you think?

regards,
Adel Belhouane.
