I don't see how it's different from the stdout.log generated by
Avocado - in both cases you're writing the output produced by a

Anyway, it doesn't really matter, we can mix and match as long as
it's still possible to conveniently visualize the file in the browser
as opposed to having to jump through additional hoops :)
