Hmm, I just found a good reason for:

class AbstractFoo {
/**
* @phoenix:dependency name="MyService"
*/
public void service(ServiceManager manager) {
// does everything service() needs to do for
// all extending classes
}
}

/**
* @phoenix:block
*/
class BlockFoo {
// No way I could find to specify dependencies here
// short of overriding service with a dummy one calling
// super.service()
}

So I guess drilling down for dependencies (and maybe services) is a good
thing after all.

this is about the use-case that i had. i think the main situations where it may be useful will involve the block being a container itself...

paul, is that feasible with qdox?
