Ok. I have made a first cut at this, which will allow you to update
your writers to address the @todo regarding serializing the configuration/

I really wish we discussed this first and came to some sort of agreement before committing this into the classes. I still don't understand properly what you want to do or why you want to do it!


See my other post--I have some questions myself.

I am keeping an eye out on future requirements while trying to satisfy
our current ones.


Ok - I've taken a look and to be honest - I don't understand what this is for - don't get the value it provides - I don't like the fact that its non-serializable which in turn means that the creators break because the serialized and non-serialized result will be different. As a result I think MetaInfoLocator should not be included in the Type defintion.

If you really need something loike this then start thinking about defining a meta-info service under the SPI package - that takes a Type and an extension key as an argument. There simply isn't any reason to include this into the core Type defintion.
