Apparently this JIRA has disabled code formatting. Unfortunate. You get the idea.

> It is desirable to have the Level be an enum. However, it is also desirable to let users add new log levels. These goals are in opposition to each other since enum classes are final. In addition, adding new levels implies adding new methods to the Logger interface (or some counterpart to it). This would be unworkable.
