Ok, so to try to answer my own question, it looks like the implementation
loader can use a ComponentTypeDocumentProcessor (passing itself in
the constructor) and then calling read with the URL of the component
type side file. Does this sound ok?

How is this supposed to work now? Previously, an implementation
loader had the option of asking the loader registry to load a component
type from a side file, and then it was able to downcast the returned
component type to an extension-specific component type.

Since a component type's file is a separate stream, how does an
implementation loader (as a StAXArtifactProcessor that it is) kick off
a separate stream read? Is there a pattern for this, and is there an
exisiting component type reader that can be invoked? Or is this all
left as an exercise to the developer? Or perhaps this is coming but
not complete yet?

Thanks
