I don't think that we should do something too specific to the "pear
runtime".
If I look from a UIMA users perspective I see that there is something
that is called pear to package annotators and UIMA components but
there is no way to easy run these packaged components in the UIMA
runtime later. So that's why I think the core framework should have
a pear runtime integration and API to run these pear packages out of the
box without doing anything manually after the pear installation.
