	 * but internal logger instance must be the same. In the case of Jodds
	 * implementations, this method always returns the same instance for the
	 * same name.
	 * 
	 * Behaviour for 3rd party libraries is different because of common usage
	 * pattern, where logger instances created with this method are usually
	 * stored as static finals.
