However this works... yet it feels a little clumsy

'idealLogger' => array(
        'stream' => array('stream' => __DIR__ . '/../../../data/logs/ideal.log'),
)

$logger = new \Zend\Log\Logger();
foreach($sm->get('config')->idealLogger as $name => $options) {
    $writer = $logger->plugin($name, $options->toArray());
    $logger->addWriter($writer);
}
