Great. IMHO a simple file logger with a function in t3lib_div is enough
for the PHP API.

For TS stuff in the FE I'd use (additionally) the logging of the admin
panel. Any file logging must not use the same file as the API logging,
because they have different target audiences (developers <=> site admins).

Right.

I think that some wanted to drop the idea of alternative page icons.
Persoanlly I like the idea of "sysfolder contains <plugin>". The term
"plugin" in this context is not well chosen, but the principle is nice
(I also like the special folder icons for music folders on windows). See
it as a pledge to get the FE-use-folder icon back :)
