I think it would be a good idea to be able to specify the error log on
the command line when starting mysqld. Right now mysql users can only
specify the following logs on the command line:
        log (access/activity log)
        log bin
        log bin index
        log update
        log isam
        log slow-queries
        innodb_log_*

I would love to be able to specify the error log on the command line.
        log error
        ( by default-only it is $MYSQL_ROOT/var/`hostname`.err )
        mysqld --log-error=/usr/mysql/logs/error.log

Maybe some people don't like that it is flagged as an "error" log.
I really don't care what it is referred to as long as I can actually
specify the name and location of the log.

Does anyone else have an opinion on this?
