URLs will be listed there soon. Even so, filing bugs on this isn't
very valuable unless you intend to work on the bug yourself.

This is intended as a continual awareness thing - just like the page
render time: it makes it easier for folk working on the problem to see
where improvement is needed. Tastefully in your face. (I'm wondering
if the ajax log is too subtle - perhaps it needs to always show the
most recent item, or have them appear and then hide. $concepts)

We have comprehensive backend reporting on performance now; this
complements that - once we're at the point that 99% of renders are
subsecond, we can start looking at automated reporting of the times
from this log, to start driving the client side figures down.
