 Hi!!
 I am a DevOps, and i like to put every services log on one place, for
 organization, fast debug and security.

 Sow i propose a php constant that define the debug.log place.

 in line 331 of wp-includes/load.php we have  this:
 {{{#!php
 <?php
 ini_set( 'error_log', WP_CONTENT_DIR . '/debug.log' );
 }}}
 if we add this after this block:

 {{{#!php
 <?php

 if( defined('WP_DEBUG_DIR') ) {
    ini_set( 'error_log', WP_DEBUG_DIR . '/debug.log' );
 }

 }}}

 full block
 {{{#!php
 <?php
 ini_set( 'error_log', WP_CONTENT_DIR . '/debug.log' );
 if( defined('WP_DEBUG_DIR') ) {
    ini_set( 'error_log', WP_DEBUG_DIR . '/debug.log' );
 }
 }}}

 and after if we defined this constant '''WP_DEBUG_DIR''' on wp-config.php
 we can successfull set a custom debug.log place

 Thx have a nice day
