Hi,

I would like to make a change to Formatter interface to add the methods

String getHead();
String getTail();

Basically these would return text that should be written at start of log 
session (head) or end of log session (tail). So that way the newly added 
XMLFormatter will produce valid XML ;) I have also been asked for this 
functionality a few times in past so that banners can be written at start of 
log session (ie log started on date foo on machine y).

By default I would make all existing formatters return null and thus no 
behaviour change would be witnessed.
 
Cheers,

Pete
