For CLI users, the fftool log prefixes already identify the input file 
and the stream in many msgs, e.g.

e.g. [vist#0:0/h264 @ 000002485a204540] [dec:h264 @ 000002485a36e900] 
Decoder thread received EOF packet

So, an opt-in flag should be added even if it's not made the default, or 
no UUID replacement is found for the memaddr.

Gyan
