It may be interesting to also look at the spring/osgi integration in a
larger context.  For example, the Eclipse RCP plugins for the most part
run on Foundation 1.0.   The spring integration could (should) have a
bearing in the more general OSGi and Eclipse world so it would be
important that the basic mechanisms developed continue to work in these
more restricted envrionments.  Put another way, if the integration is
successful, Spring ain't just for servers any more.
