Comment (by Chris Jerdonek):

 I don't consider parsing log output with regexes to be structured output
 or a programmatic API. That seems brittle and unnecessarily complicated,
 and also would be hard for Django to make backwards compatibility
 guarantees about.

 What I had in mind was something like log output going to stderr, and the
 paths of the created files going to stdout -- one per line. If something
 fancier was needed, json could be outputted. With something like that,
 there wouldn't be any need for regex parsing and the API would be well-
 defined.
