Detailed Description

Takes an entity object (binding class) and traverses the tree to find references (EntityRefT nodes) to other entity objects.

Currently specific to XML binding classes produced by the Castor framework; should be not too hard though to adapt to others (mainly enumeration stuff)

Assumes that it's a tree, not a graph (therefore no checks whether a node has been visited already). On a graph this could lead to an infinite loop.

Possible optimization would be to compute on demand a list of Class objects for which we know that they can't have EntityRefT children, and to subsequently stop the recursion there.
