Topic 1

Let's say I want my logs to look like this:

Date [thread] [loggerName] [MarkerName] Message

But most of the time I do not have a marker so I end up with a lot of lame
looking log entries with [].

Instead I'd rather see nothing.

I could use a replace like this (not tested):

%replace{[%marker]}{\[\]}{}

But that seems 'expensive' and cryptic, the perfect combo ;-)

Should we had a gadget so you can configure like:

%equals{[%marker]}{[]}{}

Which just does a String.equals instead of a RE match?

Topic 2

The toString on Markers are not nice when the marker has parents.
Therefore, I'd like to add %simpleMarker (like there is a
Class#getSimpleName). simpleMarker gets the name sans parents.

Then I can say:

%equals{[%simpleMarker]}{[]}{}

Thoughts?
