> There have been a couple instances (that come to my mind) where there was the need to do some work after creating the broker factory. Sometimes there is a necessity to ensure single threadedness @see (PersistenceProviderImpl.postBrokerFactoryInitialization(...)), other times we need to perform some additional configuration / initialization after the BrokerFactory has completed (openjpa.InitializeEagerly=true). 
> I recently ran across a problem with the second case. In AbstractBrokerFactory.ctor(...) we attempt to create a broker even though the subclassed BrokerFactory hasn't able to execute it's constructor.
> Example pseudo code:
> abstract class AbstractBrokerFactory {
> 	AbstractBrokerFactory(Config c){
> 		// setup
> 		if(InitializeEagerly==true)
> 			this.newBroker(); <-- BAD! The subclass hasn't executed it's constructor but it may be asked to create a new broker.
> 	}		
> }
> class ConcreteBrokerFactory extends AbstractBrokerFactory {
> 	Config _conf;
> 	ConcreteBrokerFactory (Config c){
> 		super(c);
> 		// setup
> 		_conf = c;
> 	}
> 	newBroker(){
> 		_conf.getSomething(); <-- _conf IS NULL because the constructor hasn't fully executed yet.
> 	}
> }
> I propose that we need a postCreationCallBack method on the BrokerFactory interface. This will be a single place that Bootstrap can drive this 'after creation ish' work.
