I'm more or less ambivalent on it.  I guess the advantage of being shown
is that you'll see it next to the unhidden nautilus-debug-log.txt on
your home dir, and remember "oh, I *have* logging enabled".  It's not
supposed to live there all the time, just while you are debugging
something.

That's a really nice idea.  Maybe something like
"X-bugbuddy-script-to-collect-extra-info = nautilus-collect-debug-log-helper.sh"?
