 * A tagging interface used to specify the type of a Resourceable which is

 * Implementation-Note: This is a parent interface of OlatResourceableType
 * (for OlatResourceables) and StringResourceableType (for simple Strings).
 * Both are simple enums - and in order to be able to have a parent interface
 * for two enums this interface requires name() - which is the only method
 * used by users of this ILoggingResourceableType.
