Jorge Sanchez updated LOG4J2-2062:
----------------------------------
    Description: 
When using the KafkaAppender the KafkaManager only sends the value of a message 
to a Kafka topic. 

It could be useful to be able to assign a value to the key of that message via 
configuration instead of having it null.

Check 
https://github.com/apache/logging-log4j2/blob/master/log4j-core/src/main/java/org/apache/logging/log4j/core/appender/mom/kafka/KafkaManager.java#L99
