Anyway a needed thing for configuration is a validator for reading templates (stored in jar), validate it on a DTD or similar basis and ask to the user to fill needed values. So if DTD says there must be an element named <dnsserver> and it must not be empty we place in the template the <dnsserver> tag empty, on the validator error the user wiil be asked for fill the element with the help provided in the help attribute <dnsserver help="place here your dns server">. I know Xerces allow pluggable validator... what about JDOM?
