Hi Elijah,

not sure we understand each other there, please confirm IIUC - in my
mind I would have extracted "configurations APIs" (mainly interfaces
and few abstract classes maybe) from the configuration module and put
in the core, then renamed the actual configuration module to
`xml-configuration` and let the [digester] dependency - and make the
switch to [configuration] in a second step, taking care on ingesting
same type of input format.

did I understand correctly?
TIA!
-Simo
