Improved logging, especially for working with datasources

Working with datasources and importing data sometimes seems like shooting with a blindfold due to lack of logging. If it works, great. If not, there is no way to check why it didn't work. There is no feedback or logging available. More feedback on what goes wrong would be very helpful and I assume will also reduce the number of tickets.

  Yep, blindfolded, in a dark tunnel, aiming for a silently moving object of unknown size, speed and direction

  I want to broaden the context for the need for logging.

  I was trying to build a report on the weekend. I got numerous error messages. There was no indication of issues on https://status.bluedolphin.app/.  I submitted a ticket. 

  On Monday they said "Are you still getting the error?" I said "No, it works now. Can you look in the error logs and see WHY it failed?"  They replied

  "No, we don't have it. ... You can create a wish on our community for that."

  So here I am, piggy-backing on this wish.
