   The comment in the review saying that we should probably keep the `info` 
level when the user explicitly requested that information (with the 
`showCompilationChanges` configuration option) has not been answered. There is 
also the issue that we currently flood the debug level with so many records 
that logging anything at this level is practically lost, because `debug` is 
often used as a `trace` level providing no way for users to debug their build 
configuration without being drowned in Maven internal details.
   
   I have create pull request #1108 for the `showCompilationChanges` flag. 
About the flood at debug level, I have no solution for now, as this is wider 
problem that the compiler plugin. A solution may be to create a `Log.trace` 
method and demote many `debug` levels to `trace` among all Maven core and 
plugins.
