Yay.

Even a crude rendering is so much better than a possibly multi-day
delay for people to try to recreate why their query is slow.   I think
if we just enable this on the server side we can have the client just
turn this on only when ++dblog++ is on which should reduce the normal
overhead (testing obviously needed).

Can you try adding it?
