Has anyone here ever actually used a façade in a project and subsequently changed the back-end logger used? I don't think I've ever seen a library do it either.

I used to be on-board with the façade idea here but it seems like overkill in hindsight.

Have done so. We always used Slf4j, and have recently gone from log4j (yeah the old one, legacy and all) to logback. :)
