Yeah, yeah, I was just thinking out loud. :) Calling the lookup method "instance" is not really changing the name: you'd still have <utility /> to register it etc. It's just the naming of a lookup method, which indicates "get me the instance providing this interface". I can see it getting confusing, though. On balance, I think .utility() is better. I'm also not opposed to IFoo() for lookup (so long as registration and documentation maintains the adapter/utility distinction).
