Ok, how 'bout, spamd, being a client of SA, ought to be able to control
SA's output?  From this modular, decoupled design perspective, SA should
provide a hook through which clients such as spamd could get reports -
to do with them as they wish.  It's up to spamd whether it wants to be
"polite," and use the reports (whether received by capturing stderr, or
a hook), and spamd could have switches so the user could tell it what to
do in this regard.
