These options include setting thresholds for reacting to messages, setting limits of how many times this destination will react to a messages of a given type (either ID or severity).
It is completely optional to have a PSet configuring a given destination. For example, in this file, the cout destination is not further configured. In that case, no filtering will be done for that destination -- all messages will appear.
