Description:
It looks like there is no \G in 'mysqlsh --sql'.

This makes output for SHOW CREATE TABLE and SHOW ENGINE INNODB STATUS a bit unreadable.

How to repeat:
with mysqlsh --sql:
SHOW ENGINE INNODB STATUS\G

Please also add --auto-vertical-output and make it the default (but allow it to be turned off)

Changing title of bug as \G was added in 1.0, but not the option to automatically select vertical output.

Closing bug as this was implemented in 1.0.9 or earlier.
