-------------------------------------------------------------------

I personally would be happy with either approach. There's no recommended way to do this already, apart from from manually calling e.g. CollectionReaderDescription.toXML ? (I note that this approach, by default, dumps the whole type system to the AE descriptor).

> The "generate" goal of the uimaFIT maven plugin should include type system imports in the generated descriptors. This would make those descriptors directly usable in descriptor-based workflows such as CPE or UIMA-AS.
> In our case, we point to the TS descriptor files directly in types.txt, thus not relying on any "magic" TS discovery. This could translate directly to a corresponding import by name in the XML descriptor. More sophisticated setups might of course be more difficult to handle.
