I know the log and I like it. In fact I like it so much I suggest to 
remove all debug() in the core and replace it with devLog().

My questions are in as much rethorical as they should've started a 
discussion of good places to add devLogs in the core.

I've mentioned one: t3lib_div::callUserFunction

IMHO t3lib_db is a good place. All fatal failures, especially whenever a 
query is broken should be logged.

A great extension! (Though I noticed that the sorting of the log entries 
seems to be dependend of the current option). And I suggest to add the 
pid of the process (or some other unique id) so one can distinguish 
different runs more easily.
