title: JAXB: Isn't it possible to use an XmlAdapter without @XmlJavaTypeAdapter?
body: <p>Can't I register a bunch of <code>XmlAdapter</code>s to <code>Marshaller</code>|<code>Unmarshaller</code> so that I wouldn't need to specify <code>@XmlJavaTypeAdapter</code> on each filed, whose type isn't natively JAXB-supported?</p>
  
  <p>I find it somewhat <a href="http://icanhascheezburger.files.wordpress.com/2010/05/funny-pictures-cat-is-manager.jpg" rel="noreferrer">redundant</a>.</p>
  
  <p>BTW, <code>someMarshaller.setAdapter(...)</code> seem not to do anything.</p>
