if (typeof console === "undefined" || typeof console.log === "undefined") {
	if (!window.console) {
		window.console = {};
	}
	var noOp = function() { };
	var methods = ['log', 'debug', 'warn', 'info', 'error', 'assert', 'time', 'timeEnd'];
	for (var i = 0; i < methods.length; i++) {
		console[methods[i]] = noOp;
	}
}

Right now console.log output will only be shown when the debug mode is enabled.
This comes with various different issues:

I’m constantly running my development instance in debug mode

but much worse:

Users on hosted instances can’t provide JS logs

I’d appreciate if we could change this behavior and console.log would be shown all the time.
