There's about 10 different attributes we can also print, and they will
be likewise harmless. Should we add them all?
I am frankly surprised by the amount of support for this feature, and
the fact that this support say this is harmless, and possibly
useful, but does not name any single frontend that actually separates
arguments from "true" locals.
