Sounds like a good change, but I have two questions: will this affect the

Maxent model now in a component that will soon require a Seq tagging model
after the change?
Yes, the current Maxent Model impls will then be turned into a Sequence
Classification Model by
applying beam search to it.
All existing models will continue to work.
Anyway, classes which extend NameFinderME will very likely break
(depending on what is modified), but they were
broken through the maxent refactoring anyway already.
