I do. We are actually working on something based on qLog (http://docs.huihoo.com/qt/qtextended/4.4/debug-qtextended.html#qlog-categorized-logging)

Initially we only started to look at it because we needed something in QtSensors but I definitely see this as a more generic thing. Besides porting it to Qt5 we are still investigating its usefulness as a generic Qt5 thing. We should soon have some preliminary results.  

So I guess, watch this space...
