I also didn't find a way to configure Logger filter except programmed via setFilter API, that's another evidence that rarely a filter is applied to a Logger. There is no guarantee that Filter won't cause side-effect with lazy message construction on LogRecord although it's much less likely as Handler could do. Given all those factors, I don't think it's mature to implement. Cheers, Henry
