[New-bugs-announce] [issue23207] logging.basicConfig does not validate keyword arguments

[Florian Bruhin]

New submission from Florian Bruhin:

logging.basicConfig uses **kwargs and does not validate them.

This caused me to shoot myself in the foot multiple times by passing logLevel instead of level accidentally, and then trying to figure out why my messages don't get logged.
