[docs] [issue39914] logging.config: '.' (dot) as a key is not documented

9 Mar 2020

      New submission from Yuta Okamoto <okapies@gmail.com>:

I noticed that Configurators in logging.config module accepts '.' (dot) as a key to fill attributes for filters, formatters, and handlers directly like the following:

handlers:
    syslog:
        class: logging.handlers.SysLogHandler
        .:
            ident: 'app-name: '

https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/46abfc1416ff8e450999611ef8f231ff871ab...

But it seems this functionality is not documented in https://docs.python.org/3/library/logging.config.html
