Yeah, I'm working on this but didn't dig in to this that deeper to
figure out to see whether Glen's suggestions are feasible.

Give me some time to finish the service group stuff and get back to
this.

Hi all:
I think we should adjust the AxisConfiguration class to refer to
components (services, modules) by simple string names and not by QNames.
First off, when you define a service in service.xml, the name is a
string. Obviously the file-based naming for services also uses strings.
Ditto for modules.
Clearly WSDL defines QNames for services, and any individual Axis
service deployment should be able to *map* to a particular WSDL QName,
but in terms of our deployment registry we should be referring to things
by string names most of the time.
The actual changes I'm talking about would include:
* Change method accessors in AxisConfiguration to use Strings
* Keep getService(QName), which would look up a service by its WSDL
<service> QName instead of by its Axis deployment name
This serves to simplify lookups, make it easier to write tools, increase
developer comprehension of what's going on, and make it clearer how
things like URL based dispatching work.
Thoughts?
