Actually it is the otherway around: the SCR plugin generates the meta type descriptors because otherwise the console would not display the configurations ;-) The meta type descriptors are the only description of configurations. If these are missing, the console can only find out about existing configuration just display them as property lists. Of course, the console could also look for ManagedService[Factory] services and display empty configuration entries for these. The drawback of this is, that this quickly fills the list of possible configurations in the GUI - and since the GUI is not optimal right now, it would be even worse if all the configurations without meta type would also be displayed. This is the actual reason, that the console only displays configurations for which meta type descriptors exist. Of course, the console could "enhanced" to disable this filter and display everything....
