Because then we'd end up having to rip off, or re-invent, a logging
mechanism for ourselves.
Which seems daft.

Any intelligent mailet container will be logging itself, but we don't have
the right to impose another logging mechanism on the developers of that
implementation.
So the choice is either to use a logging framework which can overlay a
number of common logging products, we're discussing parts of
avalon.framework for this role, or to leave logging to the discretion of the
writers of Mailets.
