Description

When the xref has to be rebuilt or there are other anomalies in the parsing of the PDDocument, the results are currently logged. In a multithreaded environment it is not easy to reconstruct which documents had which problems.

It would be helpful if a PDF was able to be successfully loaded to include information about what had to be fixed in order to load it successfully. Certainly, rebuilding the xref table comes to mind, but any other info would also be useful.

This is a wish for 3.x. I don't think I'll have time to contribute.
