Comment:

 We currently have support for obfuscation on the slave, but that support
 isn't accessible from the master.

 The idea here is that the master can send the command to the slave with
 metadata saying "don't log this part of the arguments" or "don't log this
 environment variable".  This is still a form of obfuscation, since that
 argument or environment variable is still present on the slave and in the
 PB traffic between the master and the slave, but for most uses just not
 logging it is sufficient.
