/**
	An implementation of the CEGUI::Logger interface which will reroute all CEGUI log messages to the main Ember logging service instead.

	In order to use it, just create and hold onto an instance of it before creating the CEGUI::System. The base class of CEGUI::Logger is a singleton with a static method for access, so CEGUI::System will automatically catch that there's already a Logger instance created and use that instead of creating its own.
	@note When CEGUI::System is destroyed, it will automatically delete the system wide Logger instance, even though it didn't create it in the first place. That means that when you use this class, make sure to use a pointer (no auto_ptr, no regular, stack object allocation), and don't try to delete it yourself.
