Hi,
Would be useful and make it possible to re-config with confidence remotely.

Why not just monitor sling/logs/error.log over ajax via a servlet after a
config is submitted, ie lines matching a pattern since timestamp... until
the user moves away from the page. That is almost what we do manually, have
a look in error.log for anything suspicious.

Is it true that most services output log messages at error or warn in the
event of a config problem, or does some other class/thread report problems ?

Would it work in a cluster ?

Presumably its rare not to have anything going to sling/logs/error.log ?
