Hi Pinaki,

That's a different definition of TRACE than I'm used to. I was under the
impression that trace *is* for developers. It's hard to find a consensus on
the Internet but I can point to this
definition<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tracing_%28software%29#Event_logging_versus_tracing>which
I think sums it up.

If we do go with your definition of trace I'd argue that we need a new log
level which is for developers, not for users.
