Do we need to specify a date format?
Because a configuration file is not intended to be viewed or edited by
an end user we could define our own format (e.g. the format used by the
java.sql date types) and always use it for date <-> string conversions.
Properties file are often edited by hand, that's why we have a
PropertyConfigurationLayout class to keep the file easily readable by a
human being. Also, DataConfiguration already defines a default date
format if the user doesn't bother to specify one.
This would simplify the API and its use.
I would agree if the date conversion was a new feature, I'm just keeping
the vararg parameter to remain compatible with the existing
configuration files.
