do the system property lookup for every log event, even if there is a default
value? If not, should there be? System properties can be changed from inside
the application, so it seems strange to assume that if a system property has a
value during logging init, it will keep that same value permanently.
The `${...}` placeholders are replaced at configure time. If no value
is available, they are left as is (this is IMHO a bug).
If you want to evaluate the lookup at each logging event, just escape
the dollar sign: `$${sys:testProperty}`. At configuration time one
dollar sign will be stripped, so that the lookup will be performed at
every logging event.
