-------------------------------------
> 1) "generates humanly readable output" - the output is in a form that is
> readable to the human eye when browsing
> the text file containing the output from the XMLLayout. This _INCLUDES_ the
> time attribute which contains a
> humanly readable version of the timestamp, put in a location where it is

The output generated by XMLLayout_Blue (blue for the version currently shipping
in logback 0.9.16) also generates "humanly readable" output. The timestamp
attribute is *not* part of log4j.dtd, at least not on any currently shipping
version of log4j. I am not sure one can just add unexpected attributes to a
given element and still be DTD compliant. How about adding a comment which
includes the date? A comment will satisfy the human reader without affecting
DTD compliance.

We could add a 7-bit transport property (a boolean) to XMLLayout_Blue and if
7-bit transport property were set, your style of encoding would be used.
