No you see why I resisted when you asked me to take this on this week :-) I'd say: 1) For 1.4.1, let's live with -D. We have other stuff to do now. 2) For 2.0.0, let's think about a config option. If someone has some spare cycles, gets motivated and does it, great. If not, no big deal. The only reason I'm interested in keeping this configurable is so we have a fallback for any odd cases that pop up where jboss serialization is an issue. So I don't think ease of configuration is that critical.
