[logback-user] Problems with MDC's inheritance

[Hontvári József Levente]

On the other hand it is quite handy for non-pooled threads. The MDC may 
contain information which is complex to create and unrelated to the code 
creating the threads. I did not know about inheritance a few months ago, 
so I was prepared to make a mess by passing unrelated information deep 
in a call chain. It was quite a nice surprise that MDC data 
automagically appeared in the log files because of the inheritance.
