Removing handlers from python's logging loggers

Question

I am playing with Python\'s logging system. I have noticed a strange behavior while removing handlers from a Logger object in a loop. Namely, my for loop removes all but one

I've just found out that you can also do that within a logging .ini file, with the following block:

[logger_stpipe]
handlers=
propagate=1
qualname=stpipe

It basically deactivates all handlers for a given logger. But it's somewhat limited because you have to know the Logger's name in advance.
