[midPoint] One connector for separate accounts on many Unix systems

[Devin Rosenbauer]

Is it possible to define a complex configuration type for a connector's
connection-configuration info? Or is that restricted to strings and other
simple types? If so, it would be easy enough to create a nested connection
info like this:

<s:hosts>
<s:host name="whatever1">
<s:details/>
</s:host>
<s:host name="whatever2">
<s:details/>
</s:host>
</s:hosts>

And have the connector decide up which host info to use at an ICF level.

Problem then, of course, is that you're passing around dozens of
credentials with every connector call.
