Hi folks!

I've been thinking about the latest cool addition to AspectWerkz' CVS, 
and noticed a cool feature that might even be already implemented:

/**
 * Represents a User object
 *
 * @aspect:introduction general.name
 * @aspect:introduction general.description
 * @aspect:introduction user.login
 * @aspect:introduction user.password
 * @aspect:persistent
 */
public class User {
}

/**
 * Defines a 'name' property for an object
 *
 * @aspect:introduction-def general.name
 */
public interface HasName {
    void setName(String name);
    String getName();
}

What's needed for this to become a reality, if it's not already? Having 
these kinds of features would eliminate the need to manually write XML 
definition files, I guess, and that would be a *BIG* plus for 
AspectWerks, IMHO.
