"save early, save often"...

Seriously...

No, the logger does not log new/changed account information.  Nor does
it log business feature changes or other metadata changes.  There are
no plans to fix the logger or log-replay.  Instead, the plan is to
change to an embedded SQL database which enables "save on commit"
(read: no more "save" function required).
