That works, and certainly matches what I've been doing, and what we see in the 
Zope 3 codebase as well.

I don't think there is a general convention at this time; where I've switched 
things over (only a few places), I've used what was being passed to zLOG.LOG 
as the subsystem parameter.  Where there's no precedent... I don't know.  A 
guiding convention would be nice; I could see using the package name if 
there's nothing else that sticks out as obvious.  That doesn't match a lot of 
the existing usage, though.
