If I want to log something from the dialplan, I generally send it to a custom log level, as opposed to one of the built in ones. That way, it's not combined with a bunch of other stuff from Asterisk itself that I generally don't want. This also allows filtering on specific custom log levels. Verbose gets used for so much that if something got logged there it would just get lost.
