Or we could follow the same principle the guys in Hibernate Validation take: create a @List inside @Alias containing an
array of @Alias.

Anyway, taking this approach would enable the creation of an @Alias for each locale for example. That would rock :)

> A plugin could have multiple alias. For example, the Help plugin could be invoked by "help" or "?".
> This issue has two possible solutions : 
> # Changing the @Alias value() method to return a String[] or
> # As Dan Allen suggested, introduce an @Aliases annotation that accepts a collection of @Alias annotations.  this reads nicer and leaves the door open for per-alias customizations if we should need them.
> The second approach looks nicer.
