[I have no specific opinions on this patch.]

The customary way is to put each message at different level.  The
threshold level that the user wishes to see is configurable.  Any
logging message that falls below or above that threshold gets filtered.

This way you don't introduce switches on a case-by-case basis.

No different from verbosity switches of some command lines or the log
levels defined by `lwarn' etc.

In the present case, you can make cycling messages at "newbie level".
An "intermediate" or an "expert user" will not see those.  What
constitutes a level could ofcourse be defined differently ...
