My point was, they don't need to configure non-root loggers (in terms of adding
handlers) because the root logger's handlers will normally be used for all
loggers.

Users certainly don't need an API change to prevent that, should they wish to.
The following simple call will suffice (using 'gnupg' just as an example):
logging.getLogger('gnupg').setLevel(logging.CRITICAL + 1)

As you can see, it's not needed for the purpose you described (avoiding
messages from third-party loggers).

Sure, sounds like a good idea.

By all means. You could also look at updating the cookbook content, if you feel
that parts relating to the concerns expressed in this issue could be expanded
on.
