I don't want to add new expressions.

I don't even need arbitrary expressions, just DividedBy
to get percentages, you just forced me to do the expressions.

The last time I proposed separate files Ingo vetoed it.
He wanted everything built in.

If you want full flexibility you can use your perf stat report
approach, or what most people do is to just run a script/spreadsheet
over the the -x; output. This all continues to work.

This is just a minimum approach to provide some convenience
integrated with the event list to provide something similar
as the built in expressions in stat-shadow. 

It's not trying to build the great perf scripting language.
