Okay that is cool.

To clarify; I do not want you to change SimpleFeatureTypeBuilder - I want us
to create a new one. SimpleFeatureTypeBuilder is only to help assist
building SimpleFeatureType....

That may be a mistake; what do you mean by discards namespaces? I am not
familiar with GML2EncoderUtils - I would hope that for the rich feature
model work we are using the GML bindings?
Much of this discussion can move over to the geotools list.

It should not be that bad; the String[] of xpath expressions to select can
either be strictly taken as XPath expressions; or we can make them a "view"
of an origional data structure which is a List<Name> (the view being the
result of calling name .getLocalName() on each entry in the list).
