Sorry, but I don't see what that would solve.  For example, we used not to
give the destination to the standard output stream, but that line carries
a necessary information and Larry's series corrects that.

In your "prefix with PORCELAIN" scheme, such a change will start adding a
new line "PORCELAIN To ..." that older implementations may not be prepared
to see.

Other than making the output more noisy, I do not see an improvement here.
