Funny, for me it's the exact opposite: I much prefer to have my
configuration done in XML. Centralized (but split up per role, for
example), easily searchable, bulk operations, changeable without
requiring recompilations, ... especially for larger or fast-moving
applications, the XML configuration files are much clearer than the
annotation counterpart.

My 2 cents,

Phil
