looks like each module has invented its own format (or even uses many

imo we should standardize the formats.  i don't have any strong opinion
how they should look like, but below is a suggestion:

I fully agree with this as I have experienced big pain to filter some
specific messages.

I would suggest to use a flexible log framework like log4c
(http://log4c.sourceforge.net) based on the infamous Apache's log4j.
It allows to configure what log we want to see and where (console,
file, syslog...)

example use case: activate debugs logs from a specific module only and redirect
it to stdout; send all remaing log to file.

I am not sure if it is possible to do this at runtime but if not, it
shouldn't very hard to make it re-read its config file periodically..
