Description

Currently, only this method is provided:

protected ModuleDef[] provideExtraModuleDefs(ServletContext context)

The problem with this is that the @SubModule annotation is not supported by RegistryBuilder.add(ModuleDef) ... its supported by RegistryBuilder.add(Class...).

An additional method:

protected Class provideExtraModuleClasses(ServletContext context);

would fit the bill.
