Important, but I'd hesitate to call it the most crucial aspect...  that
honour probably goes to 'write messages to a sink'

The stated goal of this log library is to provide a base with common useful
functionality, in a way that can be extended to fit more complicated use
cases.  I'd argue that what you are talking about fits into the 'more
complicated' - the log API should definitely allow this, in a way that it
can be plugged in without log using code having to change, but I don't
believe the functionality needs to be in the base library (at this time).
