> For the company that I work for, our products are layered. In addition to 
> that, they're not all always installed together.  Therefore, the server has a 
> base logging.xml, but a higher level product might want to add/override one 
> logger.  This could happen potentially at any level.  This makes an 
> interesting challenge for log4j2 only allowing one configuration file.  We 
> got this behavior in log4j by using the DomConfigurator.  It would be nice if 
> there was a way we could have this in log4j2.  I know having this would be a 
> challenge for the automatic configuration detection.  It could use a log4j2 
> DomConfigurator that allows us to write out the new "compiled" logging.xml, 
> then pass the new file to the ConfigurationSource.  That way, we could still 
> get the "compiled" logging.xml and using ConfigurationSource that would still 
> allow for automatic configuration detection.  Thoughts?
