Hmmmm, how odd, I never saw that before. I think it's a side-effect from
when the xml-mapping documentation was for both JDO and XML. Anyway, you're
right, it's right there plain as day. So given that fact, I think I better
get it working! :-)
I'll create a LocaleDescriptor and get it checked into CVS.
