This is related to the prior item. It was pretty painful to get the indent directive working and something that helped a lot was when I added a LOT of log messages.
This seems like something that would be useful to anyone else writing a new Directive, esp. if it also includes some more detailed documentation over exactly what should be seen and what it means. An alternate approach is to implement this as a Proxy. This allows the Directive object to log *all* calls, not just the ones you expect, and could easily be used with an actual implementation when a question arises. (I would prefer AOP but since we can't rely on it being present...) I don't know if there would be a perceived need for this, or even a good name if it's a directive. (PrototypeDirective?). A logical name for a proxy would be a LoggingProxy. Bear Giles
