Well there is a good reason and an important one: My take is that it's better to partition modules by domain rather than partition around a technological barrier. This mean that I think it's better to have all configuration related code as sub modules of xwiki-configuration rather that in xwiki-core for example. Now we could have xwiki-configuration-default and xwiki-configuration- document and have xwiki-configuration-document depend on xwiki-core but somehow it doesn't like right since this is not what we'll want in the future. Hence the idea of putting everything for now in xwiki-configuration- default and using the bridge. Re the bridge I think we should start creating the xwiki-module and have a model separated from the storage for starters + put the current wiki/space/doc in the Execution Context. We could also refactor the XWiki Context to get the current space/doc from the Execution Context so that we don't duplicate the information.
