+         It's also worth noting that care should be taken when using a namer to
+         preserve certain attributes in the filename which are used during rotation.
+         For example, :class:`RotatingFileHandler` expects to have a set of log files
+         whose names contain successive integers, so that rotation works as expected,
+         and :class:`TimedRotatingFileHandler` deletes old log files (based on the
+         ``backupCount`` parameter passed to the handler's initializer) by determining
+         the oldest files to delete. For this to happen, the filenames should be
+         sortable using the date/time portion of the filename, and a namer needs to
+         respect this. (If a namer is wanted that doesn't respect this scheme, it will
+         need to be used in a subclass of :class:`TimedRotatingFileHandler` which
+         overrides the :meth:`~TimedRotatingFileHandler.getFilesToDelete` method to
+         fit in with the custom naming scheme.)
