Please everyone yes to this !

I use Symfony daily, and the SomethingAwareInterface / 
SomethingAwareTrait is very annoying, by having default method 
implementations on interfaces, it would remove the use of having traits 
at all. Everything would be much easier to read and write.

LoggerAwareInterface would no longer require us to use LoggerAwareTrait 
on every class, etc...

This is kind of sugar candy I'd really love.

Best regards,
