To get things going: how do I get access to current cocoon running mode in:

It seems my knowledge of Spring internals is lacking alot. Reading the
code I would say maybe somthing line
(Settings)(new RuntimeBeanReference(Settings.ROLE).getSource())
probably not, I need to access the bean itself - not the definition
metadata. I do not know if that is possible - after all the context
containing the settings bean is still in creation.
It's not possible to get the settings object in the element parser.
Actually its not possible to access any bean in the parser (and its also
not possible to get the ServletContext). I had a very hard time figuring
a way out of this problem. And I came up with the current solution which
registers special beans which do the work. So the parser only register
beans, pass some configuration information to the beans, but the actual
work is done in the beans when they are instantiated by Spring.
You are creating bean definitions in AvalonElementParser and in
AvalonBeanPostProcessor you apply lifecycle to previously defined beans.
The problem is that the actual bean definition/bean creation would have
to be moved to AvalonBeanPostProcessor. This is way beyond my
qualifications :).
Is this at all feasible?
