Text Output Node
A geometry node that takes a string input and stores it in a Text data-block, which can be viewed in the Text Editor. This could be used to view or export generated text data. One use-case would be allowing the user to create custom simulation data-logs, eg. data from each consecutive frame on a new text line.
(I don't know if the Text Editor currently supports real-time animation playback like some of the other editors, but this would allow real-time log viewing as a simulation is running.)

A node that prints to the system console would also be good for logging events.
I think I like create a new text node editor, not the text output node
