    Comment: was deleted

(was: I think I like {{log4j2-555-bbrouwer-2.patch}} so far.  All tests pass 
with the patch applied to trunk. I'd like to spend more time looking at this. 
Hopefully we'll get more feedback from the others.

> *How to reproduce*
> * Create a custom logger that extends {{AbstractLoggerWrapper}} (or generate 
> one with the tool attached to LOG4J2-519)
> * In the custom logger provide a public method that invokes the {{log(Level, 
> String)}} method
> * Configure a pattern layout that uses location, like %C for the logger FQCN
> * From a sample app, call the public method on your custom logger.
> * The output will show the class name of the custom logger instead of the 
> class name of the calling class in the sample application.
> *Cause*
> {{AbstractLogger}}'s FQCN field is {{static final}} and initialized to 
> {{AbstractLogger.class.getName()}}. Then, in 
> {{Log4jLogEvent#calcLocation()}}, when walking over the stack trace elements, 
> the element _following_ the FQCN is returned. So only loggers that directly 
> subclass from {{AbstractLogger}} will work correctly. Loggers that inherit 
> from {{AbstractLoggerWrapper}} are two levels removed from {{AbstractLogger}} 
> and the {{calcLocation()}} method will not work correctly.
> *Solution*
> I think {{AbstractLogger}}'s FQCN field should be made non-static, and 
> initialized to {{getClass().getName()}} in the constructor of 
> {{AbstractLogger}}. {{Log4jLogEvent#calcLocation()}} can then be modified to 
> return the {{StackElement}} whose class name matches the FQCN, instead of the 
> next element. Location-based functionality should then work for arbitrarily 
> deep subclass hierarchies of AbstractLogger.
