Oh no, don't wake up the dragons! :-) You'd be surprised how strong
opposition this kind of opinions has among developers. ;-) For what its
worth, I totally agree with you.

It has been discussed in a lengthy thread few months ago. Conclusion was to
modify XaAES a bit so if a process spits messages to stdout/stderr, a
visual notification would be triggered (like an icon in screen corner) and
after clicking on it, you'd get TosWin2 with buffered output from given
process. It's not terribly hard to implement but I am personally not going
to do that.

That's because debug macros spits stuff to /dev/nfstderr in Aranym's case,
i.e. to your host console.
