No problem - just add (in the component implementation) a second method 
taking a string as parameter. 

That's how jk works - each jk component has a name, and 2 setters ( one 
taking a string ). 

Again, no interface change is needed - the config setters are specific 
to the implementation object. ( same as in commons-logging :-)

As long as we are using modeler - I think we shouldn't have to write 
_any_ custom MBean.
