What Brian is saying is that we will not map arbitrary JMX objects to 
the management mode.

I think it might make sense though - eventually - to have a JMX resource 
which has operations for calling into JMX (for open mbean types only of 
course).  Note that this would NOT be a mapping, just a single 
management resource which is a gateway to JMX, and apart from accessing 
attributes and invoking operations, no other JMX functions would be 
supported (in particular, notifications).
