Would it be easier to implement a new plugin "Agents" and support this feature?

<Agents hosts="host1:port1,host2:port2" />

> Currently, when configuring a FlumeAppender in log4j2.xml, each Agent is configured on a separate line, e.g.:
> <Agent host="host1" port="port1" />
> <Agent host="host2" port="port2" />
> This makes it difficult to configure dynamically via properties as one may not know ahead of time how many Flume agents are available.
> Consider supporting the following configuration:
> <Agent hosts="host1:port1,host2:port2" />
> This allows for a single property containing all the hosts and ports to be injected at runtime.
