Support Suggestion #2 Don't overwrite logs, rotate them

If you create a log, get a crash, and then (out of habit more than likely) restart Logos, your logs are overwritten. Well most of them. This is a problem from time to time.
My suggestion requires some coding, so I have no idea how many danger's it is frought with but how about in addition to making Logging on by default and putting a toggle in the help menu. (Support Suggestion #1: Default Logging toggled in the help menu)
Make the logs so they don't overwrite when Logos restarts but rotate between two names "Logos_previous_session.log" & "Logos_Current_Session.log"
Sarcasm is my love language. Obviously I love you.

I've asked for this multiple times, e g at http://community.logos.com/forums/p/70090/487436.aspx#487436, but I don't know if a case was ever written.

I'll vote for that again.
Note that you can experiment and edit .\Logos5\System\LogosIndexer.exe.config
and change deleteOldFileOnStartup to false.

I will create a case for this suggestion.
