Without a mechanism to get at the LoggerFactory instance, there is no
mechanism to interrogate the factory for capabilities.  So what I was
suggesting is that there are static methods on some class to get a
(likely singleton) instance of a factory implementation that can be
used to get instances of Logger.  You could still have the short-cut
methods to go directly from the static method to get an instance of
Logger, but having the intermediate factory instance is beneficial.

If I understand correctly, you are suggesting the addition of a
new method. For example,

package org.slf4j;

public LoggerFactory {
  // keep existing methods

  // new method:
  static public ILoggerFactory getILoggerFactory() {
    ....
  }

}

Correct?
