I'd prefer that it be dealt with as a separate bug. I think that sysops will
have more occasion to delete revisions than log entries. Someone could put a
lengthy copyright violation in a revision, but copyrighted text in a log entry
comment would probably be fair use, given the space constraints.

I think it would be reasonable to give bureaucrats deletelogentry rights,
though; that would strike a good balance between transparency and enabling
necessary deletions.
