Personally I will just edit the verbosity out anyway in my version of
Zexy. But maybe it's a more general problem: Zexy is one of the bigger
libraries, and it alone produces 337 lines of output on startup (yes,
I counted). But other externals also send their messages along on load
(mine do, too) so with a growing number of externals the startup
message overload will be even bigger. I'm not really sure, what to do
about this, but it can get annoying, don't you think? 

Ciao
