Fantastic!

This worries me a bit. Our "standard" for remote interfaces is to use only
primitive java data types (byte, short, long, String, float, double) along with
arrays, possibly List and Map, and that's it. A standard message provider
ought to handle that right? Trying to think of practices to avoid so we do not
have to write custom message writers.

Yes...but that's a lot of work :) A major benefit with a framework such as CXF
is the automated data binding...:)
Thanks again!
