The use case here is for registering "components" (in particular, factories) which don't / can't have the CA metadata hard-wired into them: e.g., they are functions, not objects, or they are in "read-only" library code. It is also conceivable that the metadata they declare is overharsh, and that the component might work well with an "equiavlent" interface to the one it was written for. In this case, ideally one would update the software with a more generic interface; but allowing the configuration file to override the metadata is a "workaround."
