--------------------------------------------------------------
Pros of a custom "version" property:
* It is configured in the same file as the persistence provider (easier to use if configured in one place)
* Different versions of the provider could be used from the same app (its arguable whether this is a safe practice, could be too much rope)
Cons: of a custom "version property:
* Duplicates what could already be done at the deployment level (via jboss-deployment-structure.xml)
* Ensuring the version property resolves to a valid persistence provider could be a pain.  A module reference is less likely to be wrong.
* Updating a production application persistence.xml might not be allowable.  It might be safer to just update the jboss-deployment-structure module references.

Seems to me that either way could work, but point taken.
