 Description   

It would be helpful for managing logs and debug logs to natively send them to a local or remote syslog facility. Currently it take extra contortions to get the logs into syslog. Ideally to support this the log format would also be customizable.

I see that it is newly documented here: http://www.mongodb.org/display/DOCS/Command+Line+Parameters

Should it not also be documented here? http://www.mongodb.org/display/DOCS/Logging
