Mikael Ståldal updated LOG4J2-1792:
-----------------------------------
    Description: 
I think that Log4j1ConfigurationConverter does not handle Log4j 1.x property 
substitution correctly. Log4j 1.x let you override properties with Java System 
Properties, but Log4j 2.x only do that when you specify $\{sys:key}. Right?

So the converter needs to convert from $\{key} to $\{sys:key}, and also have 
some logic to handle the case of default value when present.
