Hi!

I can see one major reason to use java code : in java, we have
auto-completion, in xml we don't.

If we are not familiar with the pivot framework, find name of arguments is
really not easy. At each time, I have to search in sources files to know
which parameters i can use, ...

I think that auto completion in xml will be a really important feature to
provide in order that Pivot community grows.

Thomas
