While you can workaround that right now by using the --log option, it
certainly seems to make sense, I have some code that reworks the
logging module, which I'll use to fix this.

The other problematic file(s) not currently honouring root are the
configuration files, although in that case the situation is a bit more
tricky, as switching to the root directory configuration files might
mean some current options will not be used any longer. In addition the
hooks will need to be executed on the root directory. I'll take a look
at this too.

thanks,
guillem
