      It could be very useful to change log verbosity on a precise granularity.

      The use of LogComponents currently allows siimlar control but over very large swaths of code. It predates structured logging, so there was no way to do this back when LogComponents were introduced. But now we can.

      This could be very useful for enabling critical statements in production during an investigation, in cases where verbosity on the relevant component would be a log flood.

      It could also be a useful emergency shut off valve for runaway log statements that are flooding customer logs, or that have a problematic severity.
