I have also been thinking about how logging could be enhanced further.
One idea I had was to have a "dump log" facility, where the last 10
messages of each debugging level are outputted, and could form part of a
bug report. This would ease the requirement that someone needs to try
to recreate a bug because the first time it happened they were using
"Normal" logging.
Any thoughts?
