> Propose to turn app logging off by default and add an option under
developer mode to enable it along with additional logging levels like
debug.

I'm happy to look up developer mode and, if developer mode isn't
enabled, turn logging off (or restrict it to high severity message).

Is there an API I can use to figure out whether developer mode is on or
off? Also, when *not* running on the phone, I want those logs for
testing and the like. So, is there a way to make sure that, if I call
whatever API reports this on the desktop, that it returns "developer
mode on" or alternatively, a way to find out whether I'm *not* running
on a phone, so I can ignore the developer mode setting and log
regardless?

Bug description:
  We are creating 100s of MBs in log files which are generally unused on
  production systems

  Propose to turn app logging off by default and add an option under developer mode to enable it along with additional logging levels like debug.
  Also, apps and shell should examine their logging to become far less verbose
