[jboss-as7-dev] "driver-name" attribute while creating the JDBC driver

[Alexey Loubyansky]

I guess, it'll be less confusing if you add a jdbc-driver command like 
this (which should probably be in the standard list)

command add --node-type=subsystem=datasources/jdbc-driver 
--command-name=jdbc-driver --property-id=driver-name

And then add the driver using the command.
