I'm fed up of having to be root to read log files when troubleshooting. I'd
like to add a sudo line that gives me read-only rights to /var/log/ - is this

want to allow write access to anyone other than root.

Not really a KDE issue, but facl should work. $user will be your userid.
setfacl -R -m u:$user:r /var/log/
This one will give you access to newly created logs files without having
to run the above again.
setfacl -d -R -m u:$user:r /var/log/
