> Since @Marker annotations were added and multiple markers support too, all is a step closer to removing strings as service ids.
> on march 10 HW asked for simplifying tapestry by removing @Contribute (mail with subject: "Simplify Tapestry IoC?")
> but back then @contribute used String for service id and switching to a naming convention was a step forward, I believe.
> I'll argue this ticket with an assumption:
> Module is written and changed far less often than tapestry pages.
> While there is definitive benefit from conventions in tapestry core,
> for tapestry-ioc might be more suitable for  closer integration with type safety and refactoring.
> I will elaborate this based on contribute convention in tapestry module
> currently you write this to add TypeCoercers:
> public void contributeTypeCoercer(){...}
> my proposal would be almost the same as before removing @Contribute:
> @Contribute(TypeCoercer.class)
> public void addCoercers(){...}
> In a situation where modulesare autoloading, and cases when missing dependancy means only
> fewer functionalities, ClassDefNotFound exceptions coluld be intercepted to alow continuing startup.
>  
> I'm unaware of how strongly are service ids integrated into the framework and if this is a feasible proposal.
> Just feels like a logical step forward after @Marker annotations.
