I'm not going to accept a whole new dumper that serves the same purpose as
debug_tree; that's way too much code duplication. If you don't like how
debug_tree works currently, change it so that it works the way you want.
Or argue that your new dumper is strictly better than debug_tree and should
replace it. Either way, there can be only one.
