Review comment:
       within Samza i see classes which have only some of their variables 
exposed as protected and keep the rest private. So i think it is an acceptable 
pattern to have partial protected. We can expose more as the need arises.
   
   So the current need to extend is coming from having a usecase to support 
another transformation right .. this PR can "make the parts extendable for 
different transformation/serde" and that i believe will be acceptable too.

Review comment:
       I understand that log4j2.xml should have the Java class name of the 
appender.
   my question was if we can drop the variable "appenderName" and get it from 
`getClass().getName` instead
