Description
Hello,
I come from Rmarkdown, and I realize that the logging system in Quarto may be different.
I want to check stuff in the RStudio console while the document is being rendered, but I cannot send any message to it. Actually the messages get displayed in the output:
---
title: Well-being Survey 2023 Analysis
---
```{r}
#| include: false
#| messages: false
message("hello")
(the closing backticks are missing because I don't know how to tell GitHub not to treat them as a code fence)
I expected to see "hello" in the RStudio background job panel, but nothing. Using message: true doesn't change anything. How does one debug chunks?

Start by tracing how the R code chunk's message is handled during Quarto rendering and how output is routed relative to the RStudio background job panel. Reproduce the issue with the supplied Well-being Survey example and confirm that a diagnostic message reaches the expected console when done.
