I don't know how practical it would be to implement, but would there be any
reason not to implement an --all switch?  The idea being that changes would
by default only output those things that would be shown by "tla inventory
--both", unless the --all switch was "all-so" included, in which case it
could give information on the .arch-ids and logs.
