[Buildbot-devel] addLogObserver and progressMetrics

[Sergey A. Lipnevich]

Hi,

In 0.7.6, adding log observer that produces new metrics is tricky
because each new metric must be also mentioned in build step's
progressMetrics member. Would it be better instead to declare all
metrics provided by log observer in its class, and automatically add new
metrics names to progressMetrics once the observer instance is added? I
can file a ticket and submit a patch, I'm asking here first if it's a
good idea to make this change.
Thank you,

Sergey.
