Well said Scott. These are two separate features.

I personally don't think they're confusing, as folks have mentioned, httpd uses them. I used to think of levels as 'severities', but that's really only true for a subset of levels we have now (trace isn't really a severity, right? and fatal, well, it's never used), so my gut says these new levels support the 80/20 rule for 'custom levels' Chainsaw/ExpressionFilter etc (assuming log4j2 support) will have to deal with this eventually (level > DEBUG) etc, but I don't think that's a big deal.
