Thank you for suggestion. I think it makes sense well. One thing I feel
uneasy is that it can read in the log file many times, which isn't
effective if the log file is large. So it would be nice if there is a
solution without such redundancy. Do you see any good idea? For example,
isn't is possible to temporally disable polluting the file list when
`find-file-noselect' is called?
