https://github.com/eyre-rs/color-eyre/issues/122 has a nice idea of accumulating everything until the end, then printing it. And with https://github.com/eyre-rs/color-eyre/pull/125, it could be put into a single Report structure.
Though I probably don't need that specifically. I probably want the flexibility of printing each error myself.

I should, however, not stop printing failure notifications right where they happen.
Seeing both the success messages and at least a one-line failure message in real time is very nice to verify that everything is running fine.

When extraction produces a lot of files and some of them error, their result is printed immediately, only to be buried by the subsequent output. This is especially apparent in debug mode, where logging produces at lot more data. https://github.com/eyre-rs/color-eyre/issues/122 has a nice idea of accumulating everything until the end, then printing it.
