In fact, I think you could use this approach and the LEAB, rather than write your own logger (if configurability is a big issue). I'm not 100% certain, but I think that with the LEAB you still have to write the try/catch/rethrow sections of code and delegate to the LEAB each time you want to log. Or has this changed since I last saw it implemented? I have heard that there is something similar to this in WCF with exception shielding, which I think is cool.

On the other hand, I don't see yet what this buys me over an approach like using the EntLib logging framework at application boundaries.
