+          logging: Introduce wildcard to log filters
+        </summary>
+        <description>
+          In an effort to deprecate the log_level variable in favour of the log
+          filters, introduce a wildcard filter, e.g. '1:*'. This change is most
+          noticeable during runtime using virt-admin, where the only way to
+          mimic the log_level's functionality has been to specify a number of
+          filters which can be a bit painful.
