Use structured logging e.g. use just a machine name for a log record’s message and keep its localized version in a Bundle. Set the logger name to be below the namespace {org.netbeans.ui} in some meaningful subpackage.

The statistic on the server shall then recognize the logger name as well as the message.

Make sure the interactive gestures collector is installed. Make "Memory" toolbar visible. Execute the action that does the logging. Invoke the icon in the "memory" toolbar and "View Data". Use the combo box to scroll to the right message - which anyway should be somewhere at the bottom of the displayed file.
