Description
Currently the whirr infrastructure leverages log4j for system level logging and stdout/stderr for user level. The former is configured via the 'conf/log4j-cli.xml', the latter via the '--quiet' command line paramater.
It is suggested that the default shipped log4j-cli.xml tune down (or preferable off) its console logging, but remain logging to whirr.log.
It is also suggested the '--quiet' command paramater be exposed to Handlers as well as Commands, so that they can leverage it.
In this way, user and system level logging can be delineated (ie console for user logging, whirr.log for system) without each polluting the other.
