[logback-dev] appender-ref attribute on <logger>

[Chad La Joie]

Currently the appender reference for a logger needs to be added as a 
child element to the logger.  I understand this is to allow multiple 
appenders to be attached to a single logger.  However, my experience is 
that I rarely ever do that.

I'd like to suggest adding an 'appender-ref' attribute to the logger to 
deal with this case. If you wanted to still be able to express multiple 
attached appenders with this mechanism you could use a space separated 
list.  In the event that the appdender-ref attribute and element are 
both used you can simply attach the appenders listed in both.

Thanks.
