Hello Pål,

We've studied this case closely, and it requires an important change.
By providing this functionality, we'll have to maintain two active branches of
SLF4J, one for JDK 1.4 and one other for JDK 1.5.

This is a task that is quite heavy to lift, for both sides: user and dev team.
On the user side, there will be two branches of SJF4J. Take a look at the
number of jar that are already shipped: it will certainly not reduce
complexity. On the dev side, it obviously requires a lot of work.

The positive side of this change is that users that send more than two objects
with a parametrized logging request (a minority of users do that) will not have
to create an Object array prior to calling the printing method. Although it is
a nice improvement, I think that it is not worth the (big) extra effort.

Cheers,

Sébastien
