Summary
“Do you find yourself split between wanting, on the one hand, to examine the log to uncover why your last encounter went the way it did, but, on the other, find the damage notification messages so irritatingly intrusive that you turn them off altogether and so loose all that protentailly valuable forensic information?”

Proposal
Have a check box to suppress on screen damage notification while at the same time still recording them in the log. To revisit the way damage notification is displayed on screen (see Better Damage Read-Outs below) , to prevent them obscuring other information. Another for team ‘one thousand cuts’ or BFF or whatever those cats are calling themselves.

Thanks you for your consideration

It would also be nice if you could freeze the log for a bit or clean it up somehow. As it is, it's painful to read for any fight with a sizable number of people (PvE or large PvP fights).
