The patch looks interesting. As far as I understand the purpose of the
patch is to hide status messages from result output.
So maybe it would be enough just to hide status messages at all. There
is the QUIET variable for that. The main advantage of this variable is
that it hides a status of "\lo_" commands, for example, as well as a
status of utility commands. So the QUIET variable covers more use
cases already.
