Couldn't the logger put some placeholder in for those attributes and
after the run is complete, go back and modify the log to place the
actual values overtop of the placeholders?

what, like write the file out, then seek back and patch in. Hmmm. We'd
need a placeholder that put the exact number of bytes in, or lots of
000000000s to cover all possible failures, you'd need to calculate the
relevant offset in the saved file for the encoding you are using, then
open it in binary mode and patch in the new numbers, also encoded
appropriately. No, we dont want that.
You could stream the stuff out in a stats-at-the-end format and then
postconvert it with XSLT to a legacy layout.Much cleaner.
