The idea is of course to only add the really needed namespaces and elements.
The newest version should provide that. I think we will need to create a
kind of plugin layer in the maven-blueprint-plugin. So
people can create plugins to support their custom namespaces and
annotations.
This might then be a good hook for karaf if you still want the special
annotations. The big benefit of using the maven bundle plugin instead of
creating a completely new plugin is that
you can leverage several technologies together. So for example you could
add a plugin to discover rest services and auto create the blueprint
based on the cxf namespace.
If you create a completely new maven plugin then you have to find a way
to make sure the different technologies work together. This is a lot of
effort even if it looks simple add the start.
So I propose we work together on the maven-blueprint-plugin instead and
make sure it also covers your cases.
About targeting different frameworks on the output side I am not sure if
it can be done. CDI like blueprint is a bit more static while DS is much
more dynamic. On the other hand DS does not support interceptors.
So I do not think you can map the same annotations to DS and blueprint
at the same time without loosing a lot of functionality.

I know. The plugin is a bit invasive: it add it even if you don't use
persistence and transaction annotations ;)
And again, it's generic and abstracted annotations on top of it.
Today we generate blueprint, maybe tomorrow spring, maybe tomorrow DS,
but generic level.
