I use #3.
I have all of my Persistent objects in one module that bundles up the
DataMap. Each app that uses them provides its own DataNode. It makes
deployment to different environments really nice. It also lets me
swap out test and production DataNodes really simply.
I'm not married to that one way of doing things, but I would like to
see that use case addressed somehow.

Wanted to check if anybody loads "cayenne.xml" and related Map and
Node XML files from locations other than default two: CLASSPATH and
WEB-INF/ ? More specifically:
1. anybody uses FileConfiguration?
2. anybody uses DefaultConfiguration (with 'addResourcePath' or
without) to directly reference file in the filesystem (vs.
referencing resources in classpath)?
3. anybody places DataMap / DataNode files in (jar) directories
outside of the directory where "cayenne.xml" is located?
