Should be possible to configure profiling output destination

When enabling database profiling the output is sent to both the system.profile collection and system logs. Logging to a capped collection is fine but spamming the logs on disk is not good. We have a need to be able to react to changing query patterns quickly, so we have profiling enabled in production on a busy system and we do real-time analysis on the the system.profile collection. This works fine and the performance hit is acceptable but our system logs on disk grows a lot. Please make it possible to configure if profile logging should go to disk, collection or both. Ideally with individual levels.
