Possibly -- it's not yet clear (to me) how to present this data to 
users, but it's clearly something they're interested in.

To put things in perspective, the particular person I spoke with spent 
many days trying to understand why a particular function wasn't being 
inlined -- presumably they'd see "grep <ugly function> logfile" as a 
huge improvement over the days and days of twiddling sources, tuning 
options, etc, even if that presented them with a large amount of data to 
analyze.
