Your earlier comment referred to getting unwanted messages from third-party 
loggers. Suppressing the messages implies disabling them in some way.

That's your opinion, but it doesn't seem that this view is widespread. We 
provide basicConfig() for simple configuration and dictConfig() for more 
elaborate requirements; dictConfig() was reviewed by Python developers in PEP 
391 and accepted.

> I could also publish this as a separate package on PyPI

By all means, do that. As I've already said, I've no wish to add yet another 
way of configuring logging. If your PyPI package gains wide adoption, we can 
always revisit this.
