Why it awful? As an archive, seems decent.
(1) inconsistent escaping rules (dealing with the literal string \nFrom)

(2) easy to corrupt

Worth noting that Google provides some Python sample code for parsing the file which works great.
Interesting - could you point out where to find this? I poked around a bit but didn't come up with anything.
