Ralph Goers commented on LOG4J2-2379:
-------------------------------------
When you modify the configuration you are specifying you want to set the level
of a logger with a certain name. A loggerConfig for that name does not exist so
one must be created. After all, we don't want to be changing the level of the
root logger - that isn't what you asked it to do.
> Is the LoggerConfig name and parent blank for a new logger?
