Not so fond of this. Then you would have to almost rename MetadataSource as well.
What "MetadataSource" are you talking about renaming?
Even though I also get sometimes confused by the fine distinction
between MetadataSource
and MetadataSources. If renaming I prefer something like MetadataSourceCollector.
The problem here, imo, is the term "source". It is ambiguous because
it means both (1) source of metadata information (hbm files,
annotations) and (2) the common source mapping contracts
(org.hibernate.metamodel.spi.source). They really are not related,
aside from the fact that MetadataSources is the source for sources :/
