I did a quick review of the various components in core
and StringVisitorModelInterpolator / StringSearchModelInterpolator appears
to be the only case where a role (ModelInterpolator) has two non-default
implementations and another component only asks for the first
implementation. There are other roles which have multiple implementations,
but in those cases that's expected because each implementation has a
specific name and handles a specific case (see the various ProfileActivator
implementations which are all then injected into a list in
DefaultProfileSelector.)

It also appears that StringVisitorModelInterpolator was only added recently
- if it's meant to be a replacement of StringSearchModelInterpolator then
one option would be to simply remove StringSearchModelInterpolator.
Alternatively if StringSearchModelInterpolator is needed to be kept around
for compatibility reasons (such as someone directly extending it outside of
Maven) then the Named annotation could be removed
from StringSearchModelInterpolator so it isn't automatically picked up.

Wrt. extra checks, checking for multiple implementations in the same
realm/classloader that haven't been given specific names is a possibility -
