Yes you are exactly correct - here are the IOS statements:
interface Loopback0
description *** Loopback Interface SNMP Manager ***
ip address 10.255.255.35 255.255.255.255
snmp-server trap-source Loopback0

At the risk of asking a silly question....can anyone explain this
concept of sending traps from the loopback interface? I'm struggling
at what this means.
I'm familiar with a loopback address of 127.0.0.1, but as for loopback
interface, I'm a bit lost. Is this an administrative interface on
Cisco devices that receives an IP address other than 127.0.0.1?
Answers in the form of IOS commands cheerfully accepted.
