If we invent LOG_ONLY (feel free to bikeshed the name), we could later
redefine it as (LOG | ERR_HIDE_FROM_CLIENT), if we ever upgrade the
underlying implementation to allow that. But I remain concerned about
dealing with logic like "if (elevel < ERROR)", and I am unconvinced that
there's a near-term use-case here that's compelling enough to justify
finding all the places that do that.
