and that is a break compared with 2.2

[root@arrakis:~]$ locate access_log | wc -l
268

you really believe it is possible to watch 268 logfiles without
spend a lot of work in scripts and reportings not interesting
you permanently?

with the old behavior it was easy to grep thrugh 404 errors
of any vhost and find broken images in CSS files and so on

in my opinion of someone breaks the logging-behavior he should
implement a "Error404Log" at the same time or leave it as it
was for decades
