Heh, I tried to make that clear in my initial posting with the "since
there are other methods for adding/removing handlers" bit.  I guess I
could have been more explicit though as to what I'd tried.  I
generally figure that, if someone knows enough to dig into the
stdlib's source code, they also know enough to use dir() and help().
Not *always* the case, but a good hint that they're past the basics.

But I could have clarified my question more along the lines of
"Should log.handlers be public/documented; should Logger grow
clearHandlers() and iterHandlers() methods; or should I wantonly use
log.handlers but then just get to keep both pieces if/when it breaks?"
