The truth is we are heading for problems with the lib sooner or later
with JAR collisions, etc. given the proliferation of contribs lately.

i was going to say something like "cleaning up the example should be
a motivator for several smaller examples, not for adding new config
options" but then it occured to me thta we'd pretty much have to
have a
config option like this in order to add multiple example directories,
otherwise we'd wind up needing to copy some jars multiple times.
so yeah ... seems like a good idea.
