How about making these pairs of directives equivalent:

ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/error.log
ErrorLog file /var/log/apache2/error.log

ErrorLog syslog:user
ErrorLog syslog syslog:user

ErrorLog "|/usr/local/bin/loghandler -parameter foo"
ErrorLog pipe-with-shell "/usr/local/bin/loghandler -parameter foo"


…and by analogy, these could be valid too:

ErrorLog syslog 127.0.0.1:user
ErrorLog syslog [::1]:user
ErrorLog console ""
ErrorLog relp remotehost.example
ErrorLog compresslog /var/log/apache2/error.log.gz
