So, I'm a big fan of the logging package and thank Vinay for his work  
on it over the years.  It was quite a joy to chuck all the hacky  
Mailman 2 logging crap in favor of the standard logging package for MM3.

The one thing I (very) occasionally want is to ask a logger for a file- 
like object suitable for print.  There are some situations where I  
have a 3rd party API that requires a file-like object to output to,  
but I really want that output to go to a log.  I'm pretty sure I've  
wrangled it out of a file-based logger, but it would be nice have this  
as an official API.  Maybe it's there and I've just missed it though.
