Logrotate on flash install (2.0.4)

On my Flash install (2.0.4) logs are rotated when the log files exceeds 
a size of 4MB and checked every hour by cron. This results in truncated 
daily log files if the logs were rotated at any time other than midnight 
when viewed from the GUI.

As a workaround I have set cron to only rotate the logs at midnight 
(0 0 * * *       /usr/sbin/logrotate /etc/logrotate.conf)
So far I haven't noticed any detrimental effect of this change.

Maybe this could be considered as the default for future releases.
