I have been working on the file watching of the scripts today. The more I work 
with it the less I like Java’s WatchService. Java makes no guarantees about how 
the service works. On my Mac it uses polling - but I don’t see any way to 
control the frequency. Furthermore, if you specify a file you will get an 
exception - it can only watch directories for changes.

As a consequence I am going to use the same logic we use for monitoring the 
configuration file but turn it into a general service.  

I would only want to get this in the next release if we are going to call it 
2.5. I don’t think any of the stuff that has been checked in so far really 
warrants that but let me know what you think.

I think Remko came up with a solution to the ThreadLocal issue we can live with.

The only other issue is LOG4J2-1140. That is reported to be a regression 
between 2.3 and 2.4.
