Endpoint Properties for 2.0 (in RMI and more generally).

I just realised that there's no way to send endpoint properties in the XML
config.  Thinking back, I think I've always switched to connector
properties (which are now typically named attributes).  However, RMI has
some endpoint properties which are not configurable on the connector - the
method argument types used in the call.

Now it makes sense for this to be an endpoint, rather than a connector
property (as I think Ross explained to me a while back in the discussion
on endpoints).  But how should we configure such things in the new schema?

- Add these properties to the connector and force the user to use
different connector instances.

- Write a transport specific endpoint schema

- Extend the generic endpoint schema to include properties.

The second of these seems best, but I'm worried I am missing something here.

Comments?

Thanks,
Andrew
