This one needs to be fixed in the CVS...

This one can be added...but as an option...Even in Java 1.0 collections
we do not expose the actual collection to the user, but rather hide the
implementation of the collection by returning only arrays.
Perhaps we can add castorbuilder.properties flag for this.

Are you really that confused by it? It's simple abstraction. Hiding the
implementation details from the user. I'm glad that you at least used
"clone" in your example to prevent the actual array list from being
modified.

One bug, one possible missing feature.
