How would you configure the embedded FileAppender? Would the configuration of 
MultiFileAppender have an <appender-ref> tag? This would IMO also force new 
code within configurator. Annother option would be: 

   <param name="EmbeddedFileAppender" value="<configured name of appender>"/>

Whenever the MultiFileAppender would need to create a new FileAppender it would 
search for this <configured name of appender> (via LogManager and Repository) 
take this as template and create on the fly a new one with the same properties.

Definitively yes. My use case is a scheduler which fires different tasks for 
different customers, all within the same JVM. I need daily rolling files 
separated by task and customer, also for long term analysis.
