Erik Hatcher commented on SOLR-1668:
------------------------------------

In looking at your patch in more detail, we're actually not far from agreeing.  
It's the specifying of the convert class in the annotation.  It can be more 
implicit than that, like "magic".  public void setPattern(Pattern pattern) - 
perfect, we agree 100% on that!

Sure, there's always some String -> Object converter in the process, as this 
config will come from strings almost always.  But no need to clutter the plugin 
itself with converters.  Make sense?

> The idea here is for plugins in Solr to carry more meta data over their 
> configuration. This can be very useful for building tools around Solr where 
> this meta data can be used to assist users in configuring solr. One common 
> mechanism to provide this meta data is by using standard Java Beans for the 
> different configuration constructs where the properties define the 
> configurable attributes and annotations are used to provide extra information 
> about them.
