I know I can set Ansible's overall verbosity when running a playbook (-v, -vv, -vv etc) but does anyone know if it's possible to increase verbosity for specific tasks and/or modules from within the playbook?

I'd like to see the progress reports that the homebrew, homebrew_tap & homebrew_cask modules are hiding (they can be a bit slow and I like knowing that my playbook hasn't crashed).

I think it's been suggested once before to be able to set verbose: True/False on a playbook or task (task overrides playbook overrides global, if set).

Pull requests for something like this would definitely be entertained.

Well, I'm not Python programmer so guess I'll have to patiently wait for someone to step up! :)
