What is the reason to set these configuration differently except "because we can"? Also, if it is a good idea to allow setting them independently, you would need to make it easier for people who want to set them all to the same value, e.g. "[decorate] logfamily = short" or something.

I somehow find the older "log.decorate" much more natural and the changes from it to this version not worth it, but maybe it is just me.
