further milling project coin idea: private static fields in interfaces?

[mark.yagnatinsky at barclays.com]

Now that interfaces can have all sorts of methods, perhaps it makes sense to allow private static fields?
My motivating example is loggers: if a method needs to log something, it would be nice to declare a logger without encouraging subclasses to use it.
