    Andrus, I think he's asking about how to create the xml config files.
     So he'd need to do everything above, and then call some kind of xml
    writer (probably a class in modeler.jar) to save it all back out as
    xml. He'd probably also want to do the "sync to ObjEntity" stuff as
    well to create the ObjEntities.

    Craig, I don't know how "straightforward" it would be, but the modeler
    project should contain everything you need. You'd just call the java
    "work" methods directly instead of going through the swing callbacks.
