Yes, all this is quite messy. 
I don't consider this a stop over anyway.
Actually spice log functions and glib ones are not 100% compatible by
definition and settings.
That's also why it's hard to came to some final decisions.
The spice_return is more of a g_assert but without the possibility of
removing these checks.
The g_return_if is more of an if with logs.
That's actually why spice_assert is more used and understood (as more
similar to g_assert... except the disabling part!)
