Yes I do understand that this does not come standard with unix. The
discussion was about the desirability for it to be so. There was a
suggestion that an extention of ls would be a logical choice; the
system would of course have to log/record some extra information in
addition to what it already does . However, some people felt this was a
good opportunity to start arguing over the word "log".

Then it is by defnition buffer local.

That would be a trick. But only functions can be advised, and there is no
universal function through which all Lisp variable values are accessed.

You don't have a choice.
