I stole that spec from the spec for our validator tool. So, that was me being sloppy. So, I apologise.
You are quite right. It would not be right to output this into the STD_OUT or even the STD_ERR.
In the next phase, we will be writing to files instead of steaming to STD_OUT. When that time comes we will have a channel through which we can report such information if in "verbose mode".
For now, please add some kind of comment and a @todo docblock mention to remind us that, when ignoring /skipping files we could report it when we have the mechanism.
I don't feel good about my answer here. It is a bit 'smelly' and 'alarm bells'. If anyone can slap me and tell me I am not thinking straight then I would be happy to listen. :)
I suggest we leave @todo
comment and implement feedback console messages once XML is written directly to file instead on STD_OUT.
Then you can pipe the output to some log file and see which tabs are skipped
Thanks.
Specification says:
and
How should system note the feedback? It can't be message in the output as it would disrupt the XML
