----------------------------------------------------------------

Remko, I switched my strategy from a mixed async/sync approach to using 
all-async by using {{AsyncLoggerContextSelector}}.  I didn't initially see a 
way to produce custom log events this way so I'm pairing it with ThreadContext. 
 I'm probably going to do away with custom logevent and custom converters.  

I have to scale this to 40+ other products so I'm going to keep hammering at it 
until I find the ideal solution.

Remko, I switched from a mixed approach to using async everywhere by using 
{{AsyncLoggerContextSelector}}.  I didn't initially see a way to produce custom

>             Project: Log4j 2
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>            Reporter: John Strickler
>            Priority: Minor
>
> This request is for an improvement to AsyncAppender to allow sublasses of 
> Log4jLogEvent to be serialized without losing their specific type.
> The current 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.
