Description

We already have log levels, but all messages are printed to stdout right now.
This is the stdout sink of the logging subsystem.

Filtering for log origin is prepared, but not implemented.

  • Implement more log sinks, for example for a specific unit, so we can print its messages in a console window flying above its head (#48)

Research direction

Start by tracing the logging subsystem's stdout sink and the prepared filtering for log origin. Review issue #48 for the intended unit-specific console window behavior. Done means additional log sinks can route messages for a specific unit instead of sending every message to stdout.
