> The channel resource in the JGroups subsystem and cache-container and remote-cache-container resources in the Infinispan subsystem have a module attribute that is used to dynamically load externalizers used to configure marshalling for capabilities associated with these resources.
> In the case of Infinispan, this attribute is also used to load Infinispan modules (e.g query, multimap, hibernate, etc.).
> Several users have had issues with configuring the marshalling of a custom cache because the module to which their cache container is associated does not know about their module.
> Currently, the only way to load marshalling configuration from multiple modules is through the use of module dependencies (using services="import").  This causes lots of unnatural service dependencies, which complicates the ability to build fine grained galleon layers. 
> In order to support the use of multiple modules for a given cache-container, and also to support marshalling for multiple modules, we need to allow these resources to be associated with a list of modules, instead of a single module.
> Thus, the "module" will need to be replaced by "modules", where the former becomes an alias for the latter, with some translation logic to convert multiple values to a single value.
