Agreed.  And I have absolutely no issue with any of the constructive debate
that has occured.  But I also saw some comments that came across to me as
dismissive, and I don't want to discourage people from trying to innovate
here.

My thought is to have this new layer use a factory pattern to manufacture
the logging string from the parameters.  That would introduce capability and
flexibility without mandating any particular mechanism or overhead, and
would remove the need to impose an i18n requirement on the underlying
logging implementation.

Actually, I agree.  I'd prefer to see that semantic state encoded in the log
message, which I feel is much cleaner.
