Having a default handler is clearly a good fix.

Absolutely.

BTW, I recently discovered a truly awesome thing about logging and 
nosetests.  Apparently, nose attaches a hander to the root logger at 
debug level and buffers anything that gets sent there.  If a test fails, 
it prints anything that logger captured.  So, for example (intentionally 
breaking one of my tests):

-------------------- >> begin captured logging << --------------------
requests.packages.urllib3.connectionpool: INFO: Starting new HTTP 
connection (1): localhost.lic.songza.com
requests.packages.urllib3.connectionpool: DEBUG: "GET 
/foo:80/api/v2/?format=json ('HTTP/1.1',)" 404 None
--------------------- >> end captured logging << ---------------------

This rocks!
