As discussed in this SAS whitepaper, it would be neat if a user could specify a keyword to appear in a specified color in the log. Like how NOTE:, WARNING:, and ERROR: do now.

 

Here's a screenshot from the paper for a visual:

I'm not sure I agree, given the use case. I think errors like that are business errors and should be generated into their own report rather than the log. The log is for syntax and programming errors.
