Has there been any thought as to making the log4j component a configurable MBean like the rest of the system? It would be nice to be able to configure the logging properties via some administration interface "on the fly" via jmx. Right now it looks as if there is only a thin wrapper around starting log4j and pointing at its configuration file.
By the way, has any significant amount of work been done on an administration/monitoring utility? I'd be interested in working on something like this (or starting it if it hasn't been done already)

The console output should be short and simple. In any production
envrionment your likely to not even be using it so its just for quick looks
and I don't want excessive info displayed there. The default server.log
format can be more verbose. Its also trival to change these settings if
you know enough about log4j, so I would rather keep the defaults
simpler and let you change them for your specific need.
