>
> WTKXSerializer does not currently have any dependencies on
> org.apache.pivot.wtk and can technically be used to deserialize any arbitrary
> bean hierarchy. Moving it to pivot-core will allow developers to take
> advantage of it on the server where it can be used to facilitate design
> patterns such as dependency injection and aspect-oriented programming.
> There is a question of what prefix to use for the internal processing
> namespace (currently "wtkx"). Should this continue to be "wtkx" for WTKX
> files, or should it be something more generic ("bxml", "bx", "jbx", etc.)?
> This prefix could also be used as a generic file extension for bean markup
> files when a more appropriate extension is not available.
> There is also the question of what to call the @WTKX annotation. This should
> probably also parallel the namespace prefix.
> It may be valid for WTKX files to retain the .wtkx extension, since it
> clearly articulates what type of bean XML the file contains. This notion is
> further reinforced by the fact that the default namespace for WTKX files
> refers to the WTK package, org.apache.pivot.wtk. However, using a dedicated
> extension for WTK markup may simply promote confusion.
