I’m sorry, I didn’t ask the question correctly.  SimpleLogger doesn’t currently 
accept a charset. Are you planning on adding a new properly to 
SimpleLoggerContext to support this?  I don’t really have an objection but am 
just wondering when other than the platform’s default encoding would want to be 
used. After all, SimpleLogger wasn’t really meant to be what people actually 
used on purpose.
