Is there a mechanism to configure Slide Extension classes?

e.g. Consider the following scenario:

John create a new class that implements the ContentInterceptor interface.
John wants to make this class configurable at Run-Time.
John adds this class as one of the content interceptors in the Slide
configuration by
adding appropriate XML element to the appropriate configuration file.
How does John specify the configurable values for his class?

As far as I can make out, there is no mechanism in Slide.
One can always create another configuration file and put it in a well-known
relative path location.
This is not very clean. It would be much more compact to enable Slide to
configure all such extension classes.

I propose the following:

The interceptor element specification entry in the Slide configuration file
should be passed to the Object created for the Class specified in the entry.
This object could then configure itself.

Scenario contd:

John could then add any configuration parameters needed as either attributes
of the contentInterceptor specification entry or as Children of this entry.

Any thoughts on this? Other Ideas?

PS
JP, does this sound like an attractive solution to the problem of passing
the NameSpaceConfig object to the UserQuotaContent..... methods?
