I guess I thought the XYZDataFormat named would be already specified in the Camel configure, and thus queriable. Not so?

This seems way too ambitious to me. I thought you indicated the models would already have been generated in the custom case? How could we possibly know how to generate models from within the wizard based upon completely data format-specific configuration that we'd have no idea how to interpret? Or are you envisioning specific types of custom configuration to support?
