Ralph Goers commented on Improvement LOGBACK-1003

Isn't this a change to the API so shouldn't it be an SLF4J issue?

I am curious as to why you would do this at the API instead of in the Encoder. If you do want to allow it at the API level wouldn't it be better to do something like:

logger.debug("payload is {%max(1K)}", p);
