I'd like to have something to debug any btree index as well. I can add
*another* command if you would like. With btree, I miss being able to
see the contents from time to time (when investigating bugs, etc.), so I
think this is still useful as is.

So could you clarify what you want me to do? Would you like me to add
something *additional* or you don't like this command at all, etc.
