The log message for conflict errors is far less instructive than
it could be (almost without any effort).

  It should indicate whether it is a ReadConflictError or
  a (Write)ConflictError.

  It should tell which object caused the conflict.


The attached patch to "Zope/App/startup.py" provides this
additional information.

Please file a feature request to "<http://collector.zope.org/Zope>".
