I don't think anybody's saying to just ignore a missing slog and continue on like nothing's wrong. Let the pool fail to import, generate errors and faults. But if I'm willing to lose whatever uncommitted transactions are in the slog, why should my entire pool sit unaccessible? Some manual option to force an import of a pool with a missing slog would at least give the option of getting to your data, which would be a lot better than the current situation. -- Paul B.
