Do you think that in might cause confusion when a config file accidentally 
wanders into the classpath?

I personally prefer a fixed directory structure and, atm, cannot conceive of a 
compelling use case that would require a non standard one.

Agreed. Also this single configuration file could be then on the
classpath rather than in the file system to keep things clean and so
that the 'server profile' could be hardwired if need be but overridden
when required in some child directory.

e.g. a tomcat style server could just be configured as a single
xbean.properties file on the classpath.
