davide added a comment.

I prefer having it as a top level command rather than part of log. If you think 
about it LLVM does the same distinction and it worked quite well in practice.
We plan to collect more metrics to the command so I'd very much like to have 
this living as a separate entity.

Testing for failure here is a little tricky because the expression parser 
reports a failure only when it fails internally (and not when succeeds but 
returns an error because clangAST can't find the variable). Eventually we could 
make it more fine grained but for now I just would like to get the number of 
failures resolving variable due to expression parsing logic failing (and not 
because typos).

I'll check this out, thanks!

No. I originally thought to make it that way but I have to say that maybe it's 
easier to have a centralized mechanism. I'm still unsure whether this should be 
a vector or a map, I'll think about it more.
