Instead of adding another parser, why wasn't the constraint specified as
XML.  i.e.

<AttributeDef Name="Temperature">
	<Description>Temperature in K</Description>
	<Constraint>
		<IsBetween Min="0" Max="1e30"/>
	</Constraint>
</AttributeDef>



<AttributeDef Name="Temperature">
	<Description>Temperature in K</Description>
	<Constraint class="com.hyprotech.xml.mycustomconstraint.class">
		<param name="A" value="75"/>
	</Constraint>
</AttributeDef>



<AttributeDef Name="Temperature">
	<Description>Temperature in K</Description>
	<Constraint>
		<And>
			<Constraint
class="com.hyprotech.xml.mycustomconstraint">
				<param name="A" value="75"/>
			</Constraint>
			<IsBetween Min="0" Max="1e30"/>
		</And>
	</Constraint>
</AttributeDef>
