Actually the sample space for verbose logging is [short.min,
short.max] (using set notation). You don't have to use them if you
don't want to. You can always use verbose level 1 and do filtering
only based on the module. You can even create your own logical module
that doesn't map to source files as follow.

I should state though that, this is not recommended. Use at your own risk! ;)
