   Statistics is quite helpful when onboarding flake8 to a new project because you can get the count of problems and decide the low hanging fruit versus the more time-intensive problems that go into extend-ignore (assuming an auto-formatter doesn't catch the violations).

   Perhaps if there was something that could suggest configuration based on existing violation frequency etc that would be more valuable

   fwiw it seems --statistics can be gotten pretty easily with something like:

   $ flake8 Lib/test/test_tools/ | awk '{print $2}' | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn
        30 E128
        10 E302
         4 F841
         3 E265
         3 E231
         2 E501
         2 E251
         2 E124
         1 F401
         1 E401
         1 E306
         1 E131

   I think if we ship an extension to replace them that is probably acceptable. I suspect regardless of the number of jobs we're spending too much time on these for what is likely the benefit of very few users
