Question

Printing callbacks should return a usize that end users can flexibly configure to mean anything they want.

The suggested behavior is similar to how the current Zig writer syntax already works, but given the context of a CLI, the value returned usize value can mean anything. This would greatly improve users' ability to control how the CLI prints itself based on the meaning of that calculated runtime value.

I personally will set that value to the count of runtime-printed runes of visible characters.

I think we resolved this a while back. If not, we can take another look following the v0.10 release.
