we've gotten into adding verbosity levels in logging where each logged event comes with an assigned level that only makes it to the log if it matches the requested log level. there are times when a full verbose output is just too damn much for day-to-day debugging, but is helpful when debugging the one feature.

i used to think options like -vvv or -loglevel panic were just someone being funny, but they do work when necessary. -loglevel sane, -loglevel unsane, -loglevel insane would be my take but am aware that most people would roll their eyes so we're lame using ERROR, WARNING, INFO, VERBOSE
