There's some mess with regards to logging in WIAB. There is client side
logger, server side logger which provides simpler interface but is actually
backed by Java logger and also direct use of Java logger on the server side.
The idea was to create single logger that can be used both on the client
and the server, but it got stuck in the middle. Currently we just use the
client side logger and the Java logger.
Hopefully we will handle this issue sometime and introduce unified logger
class that will be backed by SLF4J on the server side.
