[10:57:24 CST(-0600)] <athena> so for this use case, do you have strong feelings about keeping it jaxb-ish?
[10:57:56 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> nope
[10:58:02 CST(-0600)] <athena> ok
[10:58:13 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> my only real preference for JAXB is that its easier than parsing XML by hand
[10:58:16 CST(-0600)] <athena> yeah
[10:58:34 CST(-0600)] <athena> thinking if we need that use case at some point it might be easier to just create a whole separate package of JAXB-based objects and have some code that maps them back to the more vanilla version
[10:58:50 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> also you shouldn't have to deal with the JAXBElement objects much
[10:58:51 CST(-0600)] <athena> then we could serialize/deserialize if we needed to, but still have java objects that are a bit easier to work with
