there is a dark side of my approach: the user may not pay at the runtime, but certainly he'll suffer at compile-time. what you gain is control of the types passed to logging framework (how many times we all messed a printf's format and arguments? :)
<0.02> I would not consider this a dark side. Enduring long compile cycles seems tenable when optimizing for runtime-performance. Your design sounds appealing to me.
