So basically your position is "we're Avalon. We convert what we
consider useful to work with us and don't care if any other project
using these components falls wayside. Either you adapt or die".

Sounds like the Borg. Maybe some of the Turbine developers will now start
to understand my sceptical position on "avalonization". 

I'm working on the turbine project. I'm trying to support my needs and
the needs of the turbine users. The patch for avalon is easy: Use
commons-configuration and write an adaptor that can read avalon XML
configuration files and present them as a Configuration object. End of
Story.
