I am surious about the use of "Log message". I makes a really good way to make additional information available to the user but is not the main point of the post.

So how can i get this little beauty.

At the same time i must admit i never see it in a post so i am going to try it on this one to see if anything shows up. I am sure there will be a benefit for other users who may find an application for it.

Actually i have noticed that log messages do not show up in a post so i cannot see the point. Can someone explain?

Maybe you could explain what you're trying to accomplish. Are you familiar with http://api.drupal.org/api/function/watchdog/6 and http://api.drupal.org/api/function/drupal_set_message/6? One writes to the active log, the other adds a message to the queue to be displayed on the user's next pageview.
