> +        Allow WebCore logging channels to be set from the UI process

I think that this creates a fairly confusing behavior. Most logging is configured per process, but specifically WebCore logging gets forwarded specifically to WebContent, not the other processes.

Also, there are definitely opportunities to get confused by seeing logging from multiple processes in one stream without requesting that.
