The tab routing mechanism is configurable, see application-wide preferences, general, 'tab identifier' field.
You can provide any valid Chainsaw identifier or property name (or just a fixed string, if you want all events to go to the same tab).. The default value is: PROP.hostname - PROP.application But, you can change this to: PROP.log4net:HostName - PROP.log4japp (or log4jmachinename in the example above, since they appear to map to the same value)..
