Yes, addLogger() returning a boolean was a bad design choice way back when. We'll have to look at tweaking the Logging API in JDK8. Are you okay if I go with what I have (modulo a few editorial changes)?
Given the amount of testing it takes to verify these fixes, I'm fine with pushing your version to JDK 7. Can you put a comment to describe this proposed alternative solution so that someone may revise this fix in JDK 8 when working on LogManager code? Thanks Mandy
