There is one thing I just remembered where we are not really compliant
with the dtd.
In ColdSpring, the <constructor-arg/> tag requires a "name" attribute
like <property/>, unlike Spring, which optionally allows an "index"
attribute for <constructor-arg/>. I'm not really sure how to handle
that one... obviously we could just use "index" as the contructor-arg
name, but that's confusing IMO.

Sounds like we should just take the Spring DTD and modify it. Couldn't
we just comment out the un-needed things and un-comment them when they
are added in?
I agreed - using "index" as "name" is very confusing. Probably better
not use that terminology. I would be just like me spending 30 minutes
freaking out about <bean> before I finally just let it go and now it's
becoming commonplace in my head. Although it would be cool to say -
look we can do the same as Spring in CF - but at what expense to
developers to remember everything.
