Why would one use Seam Config?

[brandizzi]

Hello, all!

Maybe this is a really silly question, but I bet it may be worth asking: why would someone use Seam Config (now in Solder) for generating or modifying beans? For preferring XML files? Has anyone used it? If so, why?

Thanks in advance!

For instance if u want some of your beans configured different for different environments. Like one for development, one for stage, and one for production.
With seam-config you can get it all configurated without recompiling the code.
