I'm not sure if it's really worth to use quartz here. Still I think we shouldn't start implementing things before there is actually a use case for it (at least I'm happy right now with the classical timer support :)). Quartz can also work with the new Java 6 scheduling interface --> we can upgrade later here (and stay fully backward compatible).
In addition I think it may be nice to add some blueprint support similar to the spring timer support which can also work with quartz and the java6 scheduler. In addition it would be nice to have commands to start such services manually and to list all registered timers and the time till they will be executed next WDYT?
