A standard logging API

jonswar is proposing a standard logging API:

This being Perl, there are many fine logging frameworks available: Log::Log4perl, Log::Dispatch, Log::Handler, Log::Agent, Log::Trivial, etc. So why do CPAN modules eschew the use of these and invent their own mechanisms that are almost guaranteed to be less powerful?

He proposes a module called Log::Any to standardise how CPAN modules log errors, debugging information, and so forth.
