[logback-user] auto context name creation

[Ingo Siebert]

Hi Anders,

thanks for your answer. I implemented this but it doesn't help in any case.

In my case, it happens that the same application version is deployed 
twice. If one of the application versions is undeployed, the other one 
misses the JNDI/LOG configuration.
