I can second that this has caught me off-guard before as well, and keyword list support would be a welcome addition.

I think this could be circumvented for now by only describing the proposed keyword list support in the boot configuration documentation (https://hexdocs.pm/logger/main/Logger.html#module-boot-configuration), and being consistent elsewhere throughout documentation and project scaffolds with whatever the Erlang API is. This suggests a series of deprecation warnings between when Elixir adopts an OTP that supports maps for logger configuration, and the last release in which support for OTP releases that only use keyword lists is realized.
