> The repository unpacks a JAR when it installs it only if the Artifact type is "car".  That is incorrect -- it should unpack any module with META-INF/config.ser (which is the logic that we use in other places, such as RepositoryConfigurationStore).  This breaks plugins that don't have the type "car" (such as copying a database pool from server to server).
> The currently handling attempts to be generic by associating a behavior with each file type, though in practice this is only used for type=car.  In the 1.1 branch, I am going to put in a workaround to look up the "car" handler any time we find a META-INF/config.ser (a pretty minimal workaround).
> In trunk, I think we should remove the behavior/type association and instead have a boolean for whether configurations should be unpacked, or an "ArtifactTypeHandler" property specifically for configurations and another one for non-configurations.  I don't see any reason to distinguish based on module type.  Input would be appreciated for the 1.2 resolution.
