There's no reason we can't have a shorthand translation to make this more readable.
I like Spring's ability to add in new tags. The tags can serve for configuration of plugins (the plugins defining the tags), or be shortand. And seriously, a simple Java-based graphical editor wouldn't hurt. It's not fantastic, but Swing does the job. Or a plugin for a popular IDE. -- H.
