One of my main concerns was a clear interface. I think "default" is less
confusing than "all". Your suggestion about single or list is aligned with what
Alvaro suggested. IIUC you are suggesting default:loglevel only if it is part
of the list; the single loglevel shouldn't contain the backend type to keep the
backward compatibility. The advantage of your proposal is that it make it clear
what the fallback log level is. However, someone could be confused asking if
the "default" is a valid backend type and if there is a difference between
WARNING and default:WARNING (both is a fallback for non-specified backend type
elements).
