We are talking GPL+Classpath Exception (not LGPL) but yeah I hear you.
I think the goal here is to allow modules to provide additional
configuration UI (not to hand over the catalog configuration pages).

I am a bit confused as to how much of the code base we are talking
here; for dispatch we only need to relax the GPL on the interfaces we
are expecting others to implement; not on the implementation that
wires it all up and makes it sit up and beg for coffee? Same deal for
output formats...
