[rules-users] Dynamic JavaBeans

[Yuri de Wit]

Sure. The solution I am taking right now is dont use dynamic
properties, which is not optimal (depending on the problem property
changes not being batched defeats the purpose of dynamic beans).

The bottom line is that I was hoping that this feature would (1)
either already be taken care of in 4.0 or (2) become a feature request
for future releases.
