It would be difficult to do for general use.  You would not want to directly pipe content to an Appender 
since it would bypass the synchronization code that is in the event dispatching.  A better approach would 
be to pipe an PrintStream and have it creating logging events that are then sent to a logger, but you would 
need to be able to customize the target logger, the level for the event, when to create an event (once per 
line, once at stream closing, on particular keywords).  Nothing prevents you from writing that code (like 
the Glassfish project did), but until the code is generally useful it shouldn't go in log4j itself.
