[hibernate-dev] HHH-5562, services and eventlisteners

[Steve Ebersole]

http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-5562 discusses 
applying the principle of a "service locator pattern" to event listener 
registration from integrators.  There has also been discussions about applying 
the same principles to services as they will be defined in Hibernate 4[1].  
Personally I am leaning towards combining these into a single mechanism where 
the LocatedThing could do either (or both).  Looking to see if anyone has 
specific use cases where that will not work, requiring the split.
