-------------------------------------

I think Niklas's approach has merit.. If we were to do this, ideally, we would 
get rid of the static methods. Thus, I don't think the ThreadLocal idea would 
be the best idea.

The IoServiceConfig is the most logical place to put this.. And we can always 
have SimpleByteBuffer.allocate(), to create non-pooled buffers from user code. 
Heck, ByteBuffer.allocate() can even be retained, and it just returns a 
non-pooled heap buffer. As long as the core was changed to use the explicit 
allocator, users would be free to migrate their code at their own pace w/o 
breakage.

> The removal of the static methods in ByteBuffer should be investigated. 
> Since the ByteBufferAllocator exists, that interface could be used directly. 
> For backwards compatibility ( and simple cases ), the static methods could be 
> retained and use a supplied instance. 
> Potentially, the MINA internals could all access buffers via the allocator, 
> leaving only user-code to use the optional static methods (after statically 
> supplying the allocator).
