All,

I've been looking at the trace module, and although it looks useful, I'm
surprised that there aren't a couple of features that I would have thought
would be fairly basic. So, does trace support (for the --trace option):

    - indentation tracking stacklevel (where each function is prefixed
      by tabs equal to the number of stacklevels deep in the program)

    - output to something other than sys.stdout (eg. output to a file
      specified either by environmental variable or by parameter).

    - mult-threaded programs going to multiple output handles,
      especially in light of the above

    - fully qualified python modules in path: (eg:

          /path/to/module/my_module.py(1): print "HERE"

      instead of

        my_module.py(1): print "HERE".

Ultimately, I'd like to be able to look at two runs of a program
and be able to pinpoint the very first difference
between thembased on the output of their trace runs. As it
stands, I really can't do this.

Of course I could program the above, but I was
hoping to avoid duplicated effort if someone has
already programmed options like this..
