Perhaps switch to enable logs could be on (standard logging style),
json, xml etc and print the output
as required?
however, because it won't show you anything about
paths that were considered and immediately rejected by
add_path (or never got to add_path at all, because of the
approximate-initial-cost filters in joinpath.c). We've
sometimes speculated about logging every path submitted to
add_path, but that would likely be too verbose to be very
helpful.
Maybe we could add verbose option too and this could be one of the
output. Are there any more relevant information
that you could think of which can be included here?
Also, inputs from other hackers are welcomed here.
