*
*
* The log message supplied when branching serves two purposes. First, the
* message should be considered a heading for all the child messages below it.
* Second, the type of the message provides a hint as to the
* importance of the children below it. As an optimization, an implementation
* could return a "no-op" logger if messages of the specified type weren't
* being logged, which the implication being that all nested log messages were
* no more important than the level of their branch parent.
*
*
*
* As an example of how hierarchical logging can be used, a branched logger in
* a GUI could write log message as child items of a parent node in a tree
* control. If logging to streams, such as a text console, the branched logger
* could prefix each entry with a unique string and indent its text so that it
* could be sorted later to reconstruct a proper hierarchy.
