"People" - you don't claim to speak for *everyone*, right?

basicConfig() takes a format= keyword argument that you can use to specify your required format string. Since you have to call basicConfig() anyway, it seems little hardship to specify the format you want in your call.

Closing as "not a bug", which here is to be interpreted as "not an enhancement that's needed".
