Can someone from the Grails development team comment on the support for the new Spring projects (e.g. Spring Social, Spring Payment, etc) with Grails?

I know there are grails plugins today for oauth, facebook connect, twitter, etc, but many seem to be unsupported or aren't updated with the latest specs. So if there is investment going on to standardize on these libraries on the Spring side, it seems like it would be a good idea to expose them easily within Grails.

Comments?

I've been working on adding OAuth support to the Spring Security plugin and am planning on using that for Facebook Connect integration. The Twitter plugin could also benefit from OAuth support and I've been thinking about how Spring Social would help there.

I don't know of plans to support Spring Payment yet but it'd be a good candidate for a plugin, either as a supported SpringSource plugin or one developed by the community.
