Thanks for your feedback!

I can see 2 issues with that approach:

- We’ll not be able to track the “startup timeout case” (well, we may 
not be able to track it anyway depending of what next to [1] will be) as 
it does not emit any log messages.
- We’ll depend of the log_min_messages value (means 
edata->output_to_server needs to be true for the emit_log_hook to be 
triggered).
