My concern with this is that we may get a lot of people surprised and
confused by this - "hey, where's all my usual output gone - something
must
be wrong!".
But once they have realized how a changed build system works, I don't see
any
disadvantage. So, it's just the first time that they might be confused (if
there is some progress and no error messages, I would think they are not
really confused, but astonished that something is new...).
