Comment:

 I rebased my rewrite of bridgedb's logger on top of sysrqb's commits. It
 is [https://github.com/isislovecruft/bridgedb/compare/feature;9199
 -improved-logging-r6 here].

 It uses twisted's logger, wraps blocking IO functions in a
 threadable.synchronize, has support for per-thread context switching, and
 has all the log level functionality of the stdlib logging module hacked
 into twisted. The one thing which it currently does not do as well is
 configurable log rotation, because iirc, twisted usually handles this
 through the application module. I could look into that more, though if
 someone else wanted to figure out the best way to do that, that would be
 great too.
