 Root logger names are currently based on the name of the binary they're
 from (e.g. b10-resolver). This, however, is not how they appear internally
 (in for instance bindctl, where a module name is based on what is
 specified in the .spec file (e.g. Resolver)).

 We should make those the same, and strip 'b10-' for configuration
 purposes. However, in the logger output, we do want b10- included. The
 suggestion is to prefix the name read in the configuration with 'b10-' and
 leave the module code as it is (and make it a convention that the name
 from the specfile and the actual binary name should match). That way, you
 configure resolver logging with the name 'resolver', and in the printed
 output it would become 'b10-resolver'.
