Except that it will only configure the root logger. I was thinking about an api
that would return a new logger (or reconfigure one that exists and return it)

Notice that looking at this function code, it wouldn't be too far from
what I would like to have. e.g:

create_logger(name, level=logging.INFO, stream=sys.stdout,
filename=None) -> logger
