I thought you had not put property names in bold but you have. My mistake.

I wonder how other projects deal with this issue.

Hint: It's not a logic bug. It is related JavaBeans introspection. A
test case soliciting a configurator should reveal the problem.

See java.util.Timer and java.util.TimerTask:

http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/api/java/util/Timer.html
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/api/java/util/TimerTask.html

What I have in mind is very closely related. To answer a previous
question, SocketWatchdog does not fit into the Timer framework, only
periodic tasks do.
