Centralize the plugin setup process
-----------------------------------

                 Key: SEAMFORGE-92
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/SEAMFORGE-92
             Project: Seam Forge
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: Brainstorming, Builtin Plugins, Plugin API
    Affects Versions: 1.0.0.Alpha2
            Reporter: Lincoln Baxter III


Many plugins have to implement a setup method which prevents them from correctly using @RequiresFacet or packaging types. Plugins should be able use a @Observes or @Produces method to tie into a centralized setup system, which executes the plugin setup function sans arguments, and ignoring requirements.

{code}$ setup myplugin{code}

{code}
public void setup(@Observes SetupPlugin<MyPlugin> event, ...)
{
   // do setup here
}
{code}

{code}
@Produces public SetupPlugin<MyPlugin> setup(...)
{
   // do setup here
}
{code}

or perhaps something simpler, but this would need to implement some kind of parameter injection

{code}
@Setup
public void setup(...)
{
   // do setup here
}
