Allow NamespaceHandlers to use ParserContext to figure out what is being parsed
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: ARIES-111
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARIES-111
             Project: Aries
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Blueprint
    Affects Versions: 1.0

             Fix For: 1.0
         Attachments: ARIES-111.diff

ParserContext.parseElement currently expects you to know what kind of metadata 
you expect to get out of an element and, depending on the type, may or may not 
require the element to be in the blueprint namespace.  Sometimes he requiest is 
mapped to a namespace handler,  and sometimes it's assumed that you are giving 
it a blueprint element (but it isn't checked).

It would be much more convenient for writing sophisticated NamespaceHandlers if 
parseElement would work with Metadata.class as the type: this allows the parser 
to check namespaces, map to the correct namespace handler if necessary, and 
figure out what kind of metadata is needed for blueprint elements.
