But you suggested c3d to use g_critical instead of spice_critical,
isn't it confusing?

Forgot about telling what I think about logging and g_XXX vs spice_XXX.
I agree we should use a single API to avoid confusion but should be
consistent, not introducing free regressions so spice_critical -> g_error
and spice_return_if_fail/spice_return_val_if_fail/spice_assert -> g_assert
(making sure it's never disabled!).
