What is the concern or issue with the comma-separated property in the

If annotations were used, Groovy would need to scan the entire classpath
looking for tagged classes. The property file allows only looking for a
specific resource in each library on the classpath.
Groovy runtime or compiler?
For me this would be a compiler thing and I would let it add to the
extension module file if not in there already when the file is compiled.
In a full build scenario this should work perfectly and in an
incremental build scenario not 100%, since there is no way to remove the
file. But it does not require any classpath scanning.
Now in case of an IDE the situation is maybe different. I am sure you
can give the best insight here.
