   @carterkozak: this could work, but maybe let's use another suffix for the condensed property. Is `.config` Ok?
   
   Basically it could work like this:
    - the implicit name of an appender is from `appender.` to the **first** dot. The same could apply to filters and internal components,
    - the implicit name of a property is the part following `property.` (this is already true),
    - the implicit name of a logger is from `logger`. to the **last** dot. We add `.config` to Matt's shorthand notation (#733)
   
   @jvz : what do you think?
   
   An example config file:
   
   ```
   property.log.file.name=myapp
   appender.ROLLING.type=RollingFile
   appender.ROLLING.fileName=logs/${log.file.name}.log
   appender.ROLLING.filePattern=logs/${log.file.name}.%i.log
   appender.ROLLING.SIZE=SizeBasedTriggeringPolicy
   logger.org.apache.logging.log4j.config=INFO, ROLLING
   ```
