After having learned to extend Work interfaces from the Component interface, I've noticed that TimeScheduler does not yet follow this rule. Instead the implementation implements Component/Block. Therefore, I have looked around in Cornerstone for similar cases. Below is a list of stuff I have found. I'm not sure that I have seen everything and I haven't checked the apps directory, nor Excalibur in general. Some interfaces have no ROLE constant. I have added a comment where I think a ROLE constant should be added.
Not being a Avalon pro (yet), I may be wrong about this. But if I am, it would be good if someone could update the components so all follow the same conventions. Since Block extends Component I'm wondering if the same rules (as for Component) should apply to Block as well.
