I woke up this morning to find a telegram alert that Kollider had force-closed our channel (even though my node was online--but they are closing up shop messily and that's an aside).

Two issues are apparent in the language of the telegram alerts:

1. Inbound liquidity now: 0.00000000 and Outbound liquidity now: 0.00000000
2. The funding outpoint is shown but not the closing transaction

Since I had only recently opened the channel and thought the liquidity was all on my side, I did some quick math and with 8M sats starting point and 7,752,952 returned on chain, the telegram alerts make it look like I lost 251,486 sats on the force close.
I had to dig around in my logs to find the channel close txn so I could see how much liquidity was on their side and calculate my cost for the closing transaction, which then turned out to be 10,907 -- much relief!

So it would be awesome if the telegram alerts could show:

1. The inbound/outbound at the time of close (not what it would be after close)
2. The closing transaction
3. If possible, calculate the final cost of the close transaction to our side
