An annoying nit in Spring parsing

My apologies if this is well-known information, but I just got bitten and
thought I should share.
I was trying to find the source of this log message:
> DEBUG
[net.shibboleth.ext.spring.util.SchemaTypeAwareBeanDefinitionParserDelegate:
495] - Neither XML 'id' nor 'name' specified - us.....
When the class mentioned had only 68 lines.
It turns out that when that particular base class initializes it says
"logger = LogFactory.getLog(getClass());"
Which means that you need to look into the parent classes until you find
what you are interested in - also that we will inherit a lot of spring log
message when we derive from a spring class.
I have no idea how widespread that sort of nonsense is, and it is not a big
deal, but worth sharing -
