While writing 2, I found that

1- t.p.logger.LogLevel implements a mapping between syslog priorities and 
loglevels.
2- there's a private method which actually which doesn't seem to work as 
expected (priorities order is reversed):
  * LogLevel._priorityForLevel(LogLevel.debug) == 0
  * should be 7
3- To have a correct mapping we should add `kern` even if probably it's not a 
value which fits to a python application.
4- There's an old closed ticket on that, but it doesn't say anything about 
loglevels but only an interesting discussion about NamedConstants

Q1- Should we implement a priority mapping in LogLevel?
Q2- Should we fix that method and make it public?

Thx + Peace,
