For plugins to do this, I think I need to open up more of the code
generation process to plugins, for example so that you can inject code
into the setter method. This is also useful for other purposes, such as
injecting code to check the int value against facets, etc.
I'll see what I can do. You are welcome to file an issue to track the
progress of this.
Regarding your PropertyChangeListener, it would be somewhat difficult to
fire an event for a change to List, as it happens outside the knowledge
of JAXB.
