Well, this is all supported by the logging module ;-)

You can define a new log handler just for the duration of the process 
and then remove it.

Have a look at MailingLogger's SummarisingLogger for ideas. Give it a go 
and let me know where the code is if you want me to take a look, I've 
got to know and love python's logging module quite well ;-)

Chris
