Memcheck already provides a macro VALGRIND_DO_LEAK_CHECK that I can add to my application to print out all the memory blocks that are currently allocated when execution reaches the point where the macro is used. 

For some hard-to-find memory-leaks I would like to have a macro like VALGRIND_SHOW_NEW_LEAKS that only shows memory leaks that it didn't show before. 

That means the memcheck-skin would probably need to add a flag to each memory block that indicates if the block was already shown and then only show new memory blocks when the new macro is encountered.

This would allow to check applications that keep running in a loop (e.g. wait for the next message, process it). I would be able to add the macro at the end of the loop and thus see in each iteration of the loop which memory was additionally allocated but not freed.
