I do not completely understand, probably because I am not aware of the
details of the C implementation you are referring to. It sounds like
you are saying rather than need a new signature, we could provide an
implementation of the callback that does the filtering? I guess that
means it all has to be done on the client side?

In Subclipse I wrote a LogMessageCallback that handles the nested
revisions when the -g option is used. How would this mix with that?
