We have been focusing on #1 so far but we would also like to implement #2 which is really important for local development. https://groups.google.com/g/llvm-dev/c/jFdq0qYtKqM/m/1dLcYUGBBAAJ has more details.

Oh, fair enough - just checking it wasn't only being implemented for testing. Would the python script from the llvm-symbolizer test be adequate for the production/local developer scenarios you have in mind? (I don't mind the C++ too much, but just trying to understand the landscape, tradeoffs, etc)
