There isn't currently a good way to use the ConsoleAppender and not have objects/array/etc. stringified on the way to the console. One of the advantages of the Browser Console for logging is you can inspect objects/arrays by clicking on them.
Flags: firefox-backlog?
Note that care should be taken to preserve the filename and line numbers of where the caller to Log.jsm was instead of always showing the console logging coming from Log.jsm.
Flags: firefox-backlog? → firefox-backlog+
Flags: qe-verify?
Severity: normal → S3

Changing qe-verify? to qe-verify+.

Flags: qe-verify? → qe-verify+

I'm going to wontfix this as we are aiming to remove Log.sys.mjs (bug 1828156) and Console.sys.mjs (bug 1430810).
