DeprecationWarning: 'root' is deprecated, use 'global'

[tswaters]

Started seeing this logged to the console not too long ago. Finally decided to add a trace and found:

(node:11504) DeprecationWarning: 'root' is deprecated, use 'global'

Looks like 0a584ea moved default_log_modifier to outside make_senca and as a result root no longer points at the right thing - it points at global (for now) where id is not defined.

Is this project dead? It seems that this bug, even though the cause is found, does not get resolved. Anyone?

@jorisroling @tobiasmuecksch @AntSworD Before to talk about why nobody response to this issue I'm going to link to my project which is the result of this and more issues in seneca it has a very similiar API https://github.com/hemerajs/hemera My intention is not to advertise my project its opensource but I cant see anymore people who runs into issues and nobody cares about it.
