So, if I'm following correctly, we'd need to change "default" to "*" in AbstractContainer where the key/hint is set if no other value is given? (I think it's lines 294, 444, 496). That's the only place where I can see what Berin is referring to. I'm not sure if this will completely solve the problem because as I'm following the code, the m_manager ServiceManager variable in SourceResolverImpl only has one entry in it at execution: the "resource" entry set in the ContextManager as mentioned above. No other entries are present -- no "default" that I can see. Is it not being set or will it be magically returned somehow? I'm going to play with the code a bit but any illumination would be nice.
