> UIDGenerator uses a ThreadLocal with a value class that belongs to Axiom 
> (namely UIDGeneratorImpl). Since the ThreadLocal is never cleaned up 
> explicitly (doing that would break the UIDGenerator), this may cause a class 
> loader leak (i.e. in a Web application, it may prevent the class loader from 
> being garbage collected when the application is stopped). Since 
> UIDGeneratorImpl basically stores 3 values of type long, it should be easy to 
> refactor the code so that the value class ThreadLocal is not loaded from the 
> application class loader (e.g. by using long[] as value class). However, I 
> first need to confirm that there is really a class loader leak here.
