Yes, it needs to do the following: parse the spec descriptors using STAX
(like metadata does now; supposedly it is faster), provide a unified
view with the annotations, allow merging the descriptors using some
arcane rules (from the specification), and allow merging with a JBoss
specific descriptor (which allows overriding and proprietary settings).

The main rule is to make sure the standalone Servlet & JSP TCKs pass
before considering things are done.
