This is something I'd be interested in jumping in on. I've more-or-less
already done it in my sandbox.

Question: Should the be_verbose_global variable control this? I'm not
sure a new command line argument is really needed as long as it is
agreed upon what verbose is and isn't.

I added a be_quiet_global in my sandbox but reading the thread makes me
think that simplification is needed and not an expansion.
