I am -1 on coloured logger in 3.1.0 though given the number of commits to
core coming from me I am fine to state this is not a veto rather a very
strong preference.

I am fine with proofing the coloured logger changes before releasing 3.1.0
to ensure that we have logging right but in my view user visible changes
make API changes more solid so I am less keen to couple them.

The logging changes are big enough for a separate release. I think users
will thank us for being cautious before putting coloured logging on top
