I think the problem is that as the title suggests, this is metadata simplication
instead of simplfication. ;-)

Incidently, the reason the old DOM stuff doesn't work is because it merges at parse time
meaning you can't recreate the original xml documents afterwards.

There should never have been an "override", we discussed this last friday.
It should be possible to override the whole of ejb-jar.xml with the jboss.xml
(or annonations) in fact, the ejb-jar.xml should be optional :-)

So the JBossXXXMetaData is the override.
