Seems useful.  Just a few questions....

When Append="true" I presume the header will get written again, right?  So, it
wouldn't just exist on the first line of the log file, but on the first line of
logging per appender configuration pointing at a given log file.  Also, in the
example, you don't use HeaderPattern.  I guess there's a default provided, given
the output after the FirstLine and SecondLine info?

BTW, are you looking to include this in the official Log4j project (either in 
the
main jar or extras companion)?  I'm not saying you should or should not.  Just
curious.  If so, one issue might be the dependency on "Debug String Utils" and
"Container Detector" projects.
