Having read through a region server log with this feature enabled, looking
to diagnose another issue, I'm going to change my tone. I think having
these messages in the standard server log is too noisy, makes them even
harder to read. In my case, it looks like automation is pinging the /jmx
endpoint on a regular basis, and we're seeing those interaction here.

So, I propose we change the default configuration to ship these logs to a
dedicated access.log.
