Description

This is what I see in my report (for example):

[...]
[ERROR] Abc.java[77:5] Class should define a constructor.
[ERROR] Abc.java[88:5] Class should define a constructor.
[ERROR] Abc.java[99:8] Unused @param tag for 's'.
[...]

It's difficult to understand which particular checkstyle check produced these lines. Would be nice to have a configuration option in the plugin, which will let me turn such extra logging ON and OFF, and I would see something like this:

[...]
[ERROR] Abc.java[77:5] Class should define a constructor. (com.puppycrawl.tools.checkstyle.checks...)
[ERROR] Abc.java[88:5] Class should define a constructor. (com.puppycrawl.tools.checkstyle.checks...)
[ERROR] Abc.java[99:8] Unused @param tag for 's'. (com.puppycrawl.tools.checkstyle.checks...)
[...]

This logging will help me to find and re-configure my checks very fast.
