Yes. I know. I am going to try a hack that does
sourcefiles="*.java"... or something.

I mean this is why packages exist right. Let use them. Honestly if
another .java file poped up with no package we would -1 it in a second.

Nope. Not anymore. We require a initialization parameter! :) This
means they *have* to alias it! At least in JServ and Turbine.
Honestly a Servlet Engine will never really be user friendly. If they
alias it they will probably come up with another name anyway. Something
like say... oh... "jetspeed" or "turbine" ?
So any other reason. I am like -0.2 on this... not a full one yet :)
