My fear is that I compose a system with a dozen components, each of which
has its own wrapper over logging functionality, so the total footprint
consumed by these wrappers is larger than the logging system which is
undoubtably going to be including anyway.
Trying to standardize on a wrapper without settling for an absolute least
common denominator approach essentially is equivalent to selecting a
logging package with a reasonably good interface, and stripping from
package the set of backends which are not of interest.
