Wouldn't you rather consider adding fixed tracepoints ? I think
tracepoints would be useful regardless on  this debufs interface.

I do not see it defined anywhere.

What is this good for, it is not clear from the description.

Oh, here is a good place for explaining the purpose.

This can be done by tracepoints maybe ?

It seems to me that those two levels should be displayed no matter what
via standard functions.

And this two levels can be done in tracepoints.

Via e2fsprogs debugfs maybe ?
