John Strickler updated LOG4J2-1347:
-----------------------------------
    Description: 
This request is for an improvement to AsyncAppender to allow sublasses of 
Log4jLogEvent to be serialized without losing their specific type.

Currently functionality, is that AsyncAppender will serialize all subclasses 
back to a true instance of Log4jLogEvent.  In the process, all extra 
information is lost that was provided by the subclass.

_AsyncAppender, line 156:_
bq. final Serializable serialized = Log4jLogEvent.serialize(coreEvent, 
includeLocation);

*Use Case*

Subclasses of Log4jLogEvent that contain the authenticated principal to be 
logged.
