I keep waffling back and forth on this patch (for months now) mostly
because of the fact that I'm scared it will give people a false sense
that they will get notification of all files that might be executed. I
don't understand the use case at all so I don't know if it good idea to
expose such notifications....

I'm just having a hard time deciding if I'm comfortable solving half of
a problem... What exactly is your goal here and how do you see others
using it, usefully.
