[log4perl-devel] reuse layouts?

Johannes Kilian asked me if filters and appenders can be referenced
within an appender by <filter-ref> and <appender-ref>, wouldn't it make
sense to allow layout references by <layout-ref>?

Layouts aren't named, there's no ID to "ref", which is probably why it's
not supported already.

But it would be nice to be able to re-use layouts, in both XML and
Property-style configs.  You'd have to be able to define them
independent of an appender, give them a name, and use the name as a
pointer from within the appender.   Has anybody else thought about that?
