How about "LoggerRepositoryAware" for the name of the interface? This follows the pattern the Spring framework uses to name interfaces that define allowed setter methods (ie ApplicationContextAware interface defines a method setApplicationContext(ApplicationContext ac)).
ComponentBase could still be there. In the future it could implement other needed/required interfaces.
