Robin Coe commented on LOG4J2-908:
----------------------------------

Could commas not be appended to each log event and then use the existing footer 
implementation to add an empty event and, if set, closing document square 
bracket, i.e., {}<]>?    It's a bit hacky, insofar as it introduces noise into 
the log, but *should* not affect the behaviour of applications that process a 
json stream.

Alternatively, would it be incorrect to interpret each log event as a complete 
document, in the case of setting complete="true"?  Is there any reason the 
entire log needs to be wrapped in [ ... ]?  What's the semantic difference 
between a single event enclosed in square brackets, separated by commas, and a 
non-comma separated set of events that are each marked as documents with EOL 
delimiters?

> JSONLayout doesn't output a comma (,) between the log events. This makes it 
> quite difficult to read and deserialize the log files.
