In the same way as seen on the OpenTelemetry instrumentation forgo-redis it would be extremely beneficial to create a similar package for redigo. Not only we can track the overhead of the client code, but we can also precisely trace errors/latency spikes/timeouts/etc...

Some further info:

Important Note: Semantic conventions to follow while preparing a package for manual instrumentation.

While this is not mandatory, we should aim for standardization across clients/languages/DBs. Here's the spec on DB semantic conventions:

PS: will gladly contribute to this matter.
