Look at alternative to the static Fields #71
Description
The static Field Object has been questioned.
Look at how a log can be built another way.
SLF4J allows you to pass an Object[] along with the standard log message
eg:
logger.info("Test object array log", new Object[]{"tagnamehere", F.add(HTTP.REMOTE_USER, "valuehere")});
I can deal with that if you'd be happy to build an Object[], perhaps List would be tags, and Map<IFieldName,Object> would be fields.
Log4J is a bit different in that you could pass an Object[] as the message, I guess the first String in the array could be the log message, though I'm not sure if ordering is guaranteed.
eg:
logger.info(new Object[]{"log message", F.add(HTTP.REMOTE_USER, "valuehere")});
Maybe use static factory methods and the builder pattern to return an Object[]
logger.info("Log message here...", Log.new().field(HTTP.REMOTE, "valuehere").tag("tagname").build());
