> Currently configuration is provided to components by registering a 
> ManagedService services for each non-factory component and 
> ManagedServiceFactory services for each factory component. This has several 
> drawbacks:
>   * It may lead to component cycling on startup: start with no configuration, 
> get configuration after activation and this reactivate
>   * As a consequence of unneeded component reactivation, the system is loaded 
> more and changes for deadlocks raise
>   * As a consequence of unneeded component reactivation, other components 
> might need to be reactivated, too, further raising load
>   * It places a load on the service registry due to the number for registered 
> ManagedService[Factory] services
>   * It makes it probably harder to implement FELIX-924
> As discussed on the dev list [1] it would be better to refactor configuration 
> support as follows:
>   * When a component is created, the existing configuration is already 
> retrieved from ConfigurationAdmin.
>   * SCR registers a ConfigurationListener which updates the components on 
> configuration updates.
> Primarily the first step allows for simple FELIX-924 implementation in that 
> on component activation, we may ensure configuration presence if required. 
> Also it removes the requirement to reactivate components on startup since 
> configuration events are only sent upon effective configuration change.
