Sure, but this is just to give them an example of how different things are split. This might help users understand how they should be separating data for their apps in an Infinispan world as opposed to JBoss Cache.

Yeah, explaining use cases will help people understand when to use each option.

Right, to make sure I understand correctly, the first would be used by a user
that wants to deploy his own cache container, with his own configuration explictly
mentioned in the config. The second on the contrary relies on the config being
available in the registry and the user configuration pointing to it?
