Redirecting the calls that currently go to java.lang.System.getProperty(String) 
to another arbitrary 
class's static getProperty(String) method, should still allow you to use JNDI 
in preference to system 
properties or vice-versa.

What I meant as hard to explain is that in either case you can't say something 
like the default value of 
this new property is some existing class that the user will be familiar.  

In redirecting the getSystemProperty() call, you can explain that you are 
redirecting the source of all 
system properties with the exception of "log4j.systemPropertySource" and the 
user has some familiarity 
with System.getProperty(String).  

In redirecting OptionConverter.substVars(), you have to say that you are 
redirecting from some 
description of the current strategy or a some new class that encapsulate that 
strategy.

Overriding OptionConverter.getSystemProperty() would allow you, for example, to 
set the location of 
the configuration file as an environment variable (assuming a JNDI 
implementation of getProperty()) that 
overriding OptionConverter.substVars() wouldn't.  Like:

export log4j.configuration=~/mylogconfig.xml
