> There are many Camel configuration elements that are auto-discovered when they are configured as Spring beans (Tracer, InterceptStrategy, EventNotifier, PlatformTransactionManager, etc):
> http://camel.apache.org/advanced-configuration-of-camelcontext-using-spring.html
> However, instances of TypeConverter are not auto-discovered based on the Spring configuration (there is a different auto-discovery mechanism):
> http://camel.apache.org/type-converter.html
> A related JIRA ticket (requesting custom XML syntax) was marked "won't fix": CAMEL-1685.
> I agree that the extra XML tag is not necessary. However, the omission of Spring bean auto-discovery seems to violate the principle of least surprise -- as a new Camel user, knowing that Camel auto-discovers Spring beans for other configuration elements, I was surprised to find that Camel didn't find my TypeConverter Spring bean.
