While using a LogService parameter for logging during the initialize method of an initializable DynamicCommand works just fine, the same cannot be done with a Logger parameter, as it throws a NullPointerException.
I assume the reason for this is the different priorities of LoggerPreprocessor vs. ServicePreprocessor:

... and can likely be solved by increasing the priority of the former. I am unsure though if this might have any unwanted side effects elsewhere.
