support Enum properties for component configuration
---------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBSEAM-2045
                 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-2045
             Project: JBoss Seam
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: Core
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0.CR1
            Reporter: Dan Allen
         Assigned To: Dan Allen
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 2.0.1.GA


Currently, it is not possible to assign the value of a Enum property using the component configuration mechanism (components.xml or *.component.xml). Enums are very easy to support since Java 5+ has a built-in mechanism for translating strings into Enums. This support can be added by registering an EnumConverter in Conversions. It works much the same way as the JSF enum converter.
