------------------------------------

David, do you think this could get into 7.1 (in any form)?
Since we're targetting the clustered/cloud envirnonments, this could become important for EAP QA.

> I'd make use of a FileHandler which would roll the file when a system property changes.
> For use case, see ARQ-710.
> The handler would have a property called, say,  fileNameFormat, which would be a string like:
> {code}
> my-server-log-${arq.currentTest}-${arq.containerId}.txt
> {code}
> The handler would replace the string every time and compare with previous; when different, it would roll the file.
> It would not be super efficient but good enough for the purposes of testing.
> (It would not be the default handler, only configured on demand.)
