Talked it over with David. This is all about a more flexible way to
specify the contract between MDB and RA. The "prompt" and "port" bits
are just bad examples of usage and I think David will fix those up in
his example.

So at the end of the day it would just mean that the result of
MessageEndpointFactory#createEndpoint would be an object exposing the
same method as a no-interface view. While the bean class itself
optionally gets set on the activation spec.

I'm all in favor to get this in.
