:warn and :error are used... :warn very seldom but :error relatively
often (on errors ;)

Ramaze only uses these 4, it is the only fragment that is left from
our old tag-based logging-system and i don't have problems locking
them down as long as there are benefits from it. Also have a look into
LogHub, which allows pre-filtering for all loggers already, maybe you
could improve and/or replace it, i currently don't use it at all and
for example Analogger has its own handling.
I basically tried to find the lowest common denominator in the
beginning, but it turned out that people hardly ever customize the
output of logging but love to switch logging-systems themselves.
Anyway, i'm open for anything you may come up with :)
