not really, take a look again at both
login_log_format_elements = user=<%u> %r %m %c
login_log_format = %$: %s
if fact i would only need "login_log_format = %s" but in case of failed logins
and dictionary attacks with unknown users "%u" is empty - if %u would *always*
contain the used loginname, wether if it was successful or not i would have
any needed information without the duplication
