Scott Severtson commented on LOG4J2-168:
----------------------------------------

Two questions:
1. Where do the docs live? More than happy to contribute.
2. Would the following example key/value format be acceptable: "ClassName 
%class Sequence %sequenceNumber"? I would have loved to use delimiters for 
clarity, but PatternParser lumps anything that's not a converter pattern into a 
single literal, and I had concerns about pre-parsing/splitting the 
PatternParser string without duplicating a lot of code.

I've added a simple test case locally, and reworked the code to support the 
key/value format described above. Let me know if this is acceptable, and I'll 
re-generate the patch.

> We'd really like to see the logger and/or location be included in RFC-5424 
> structured data. As such, we've developed a small patch to allow arbitrary 
> PatternLayout names to be configured on the SyslogAppender, which are then 
> included in the structured data.
> Patch to follow shortly.
