Perhaps the emailing of logs is a bad example (it was completely contrived, 
that's not why I have custom targes, I have copied the Cocoon formatter that 
display just the classname from the procedure that did the logging, and thus 
I need my own custom targets to use the custom formatter).

But if it is deemed that custom log targets need to go in PHOENIX_HOME/lib, 
thats fine, since we responsible for the phoneix installation as well as our 
SAR. The majority of our customers don't have an admin such as you :)
