To be clear: I didn't submit this to end up in a LOC count discussion.
My point is that there's much more relevant and important information
that a filtergraph-information feature should provide than what your
proposed patch is outputting.
It doesn't make sense to me to add once another half-baked graph-output
functionality that provides just a fraction of the relevant information,
consisting of just two or three values that a developer is currently
interested in (and then praising it for its low LOC count).
A new feature for outputting filtergraph information should be complete,
comprehensive and provide machine readable output.
It doesn't have to be my code, but it should provide similar information
(ideally even more).
