There is no way to customize JAXB to generate the code.
The reason is that a complex type has a content model as
well as attributes. Therefore a complex type is always
bound to an interface and the its content model and
attribtues are bound to properties within the interface.
In your example, servlet-nameType is a complexType and
will therefore will always be bound to an interface.
