I think it's pretty easy to understand what means what. The print
looks like this:

power_level = 0
rssi_thold = 0
last_rssi_event = 0
sg_enabled = 1
enable_11a = 1
noise = 31

As for making separate files - I think its preferable if people don't
have an option to print only parts of the state. This can help bug
reports by non-developers by giving a fuller picture.
Perhaps we can add separate files in another patch later on?
