Description
A DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST :
At the moment, PropertyEditors can be defined either by placing them in a BeanInfo or by naming the editor using the naming convention of appending 'Editor' to the property's class name.  Unfortunately, the only way to declare a customizer is by inclusing it in a BeanInfo.  It would be useful if customizers could also be specified by using the naming convention of appending Customizer to the name of the bean's class.

JUSTIFICATION :
BeanInfos are hard to maintain, and cause hard to find bugs when they are out of date.

Comments
EVALUATION Seems a good idea.
