Does configurator:bean-map support Spring aliases?

[Grzegorz Kossakowski <gr...@tuffmail.com>]

Hi,

I use configurator:bean-map to grab all Expression languages' compilers:

   <bean id="org.apache.cocoon.components.expression.ExpressionFactory" 
class="org.apache.cocoon.components.expression.DefaultExpressionFactory">
     <property name="expressionCompilers">
       <configurator:bean-map type="org.apache.cocoon.components.expression.ExpressionCompiler"/>
     </property>
   </bean>

Now I would like to define JXPath language as default (it was that way before) so it's quite obvious to define Spring's alias[1] for JXPath 
bean:

<bean name="org.apache.cocoon.components.expression.ExpressionCompiler/jxpath 
org.apache.cocoon.components.expression.ExpressionCompiler/default" class="org.apache.cocoon.components.expression.jxpath.JXPathCompiler"/>

The problem is that bean-map does not add all aliases of bean but only the first one. I guess that it could be fixed by using getAliases 
method[2] and adding all aliases to bean-map.

Do you think that it's a good idea?
