Fair enough.

Yeah... this is a issue. The metadata map says it can store anything 
serializable, but the xtream persister assumes it is just a string. To 
the persister should be patched. Do you want to open a seperate jira

I would also be +1 for a AttributionInfo class, and adding 
LayerInfo.getAttribution(). What do others think?
