If nobody else votes otherwise, that's probably what I'll do.

Good point, most logging is not configured by specific class names -
either with a package (which will often include both -api and -impl
classes) or the root logger.

Although playing devil's advocate to myself: On a production system, to
avoid all the overhead I personally might be inclined to be more
specific about what I set to DEBUG, at least if I had a pretty good idea
in advance of what I needed to see, for a specific problem.  I think
that's where the issue of logging categories based on impl classes comes
in - documentation and changes over time.
