Lifecycle docs missing an interface:
I was getting ready to write the portion of my paper covering the LifeCycle
of a Component with all interfaces involved. The problem is that one event
is not recorded, and I can't remember how we decided to do it:
setLogger();
The docs state:
1. Constructor
2. contextualize
3. compose
I remember that setLogger() was next to contextualize()--but was it before
or after?
Honestly, I prefer that setLogger() be the very first event in the entire
chain. Sometimes I want to send debug messages to ensure that my Context
objects are indeed present--which is not possible until I get a Logger.
So can we document the Lifecycle to be:
1. Constructor
2. setLogger
3. contextualize
??
I think this makes the most sense.

before.
Logic behind that: otherwise, it is not possible to log errors during
contextualize().
cheers!
