When using identify on a PDF file, ghostscript is delegated to. By default the command sends ghostscripts stdout to identify's stderr. The output is confusing and undesirable.
Describe the solution you'd like
In the case above, the output of ghostscript should go to a logging channel named "Delegate". So the output is not shown by default, but can be show by turning on the appropriate logging.
Describe alternatives you've considered
In the delegates.xml the output can be send to /dev/null to not show the output, however the user may want to see it for debugging purposes.
A command line option could be given that allows delegate output to be sent to a file or file descriptor.
Redirect identify's stderr to /dev/null, but then I can't get identify's stderr output.

The **** Error lines come from ghostscript and there is no way to disable this output without editing delegates.xml or throwing away all of identify's stderr.
