I was thinking more in terms of a warning. The LoggerFactory (in slf4j-api) 
checks whether the binding's version in (StaticLoggerBinder) matched the 
expected version number, and if there is mismatch prints a warning message, plus 
a link to a URL explaining the problem.

This should help users without potentially causing further disruption.
