[picocontainer-dev] paranamer in pico ...

Well I've been thinking about this for many days now, and I think its  
OK to ship pico with an embedded paranamer

As I see it ..

    is utterly embedded in pico,
    is only used if you use USE_NAMES characteristic
    is a very compelling alternative to specifying arrays of Parameters.
    is 18K which ain't a lot.
    is going to b easily upradable to JDK 7's parameter name access  
(as well)

And I hope that dissenters can relent and let Paranamer be consumed  
into Pico's core.

If I could write the bytecode parsing side (a fallback design, to the  
default way, I put the actual code in Pico's source tree with our  
copyright/license.  Maybe that's the long term goal - someone smarter  
than me writing a clean-room bytecode reader than can extract  
parameter names.

Thoughts?
