    Since we are changing the output format would like to see a String.format 
or something similar to give a consistent width with number of dashes.

> When you have a data flow with a bunch of LogAttribute processors it is 
> really hard to identify the right LogAttribute processor in the log file and 
> distinguish the output of different LogAttribute processors.
> There is a new property, called log prefix, which helps the user to set a 
> custom log prefix for each Log Attribute processor, which will appear in the 
> log output of the processor.
