James Perkins I’m aware that all Loggers work like this, yet I wonder if we could do better.

Regarding WildFly.. I don’t expect users to reboot, but I also don't expect them to need the lowest level (trace), which we use exclusively for complex debugging cases - as mentioned, the alternative is that we strip them out.

But yes this is just my general answer about “the pattern”, we certainly do want users to be able to log binding parameters - that shouldn’t be done in that case.
