[jbosstools-dev] New server profiles vs. Runtime Detection

[Rob Stryker]

I think the proper workflow here is to simply open the new server wizard 
and let the user fill out their choices. There's no point in duplicating 
that workflow.

Currently it downloads in the background, and, when the download is 
complete, unzips it, makes a runtime out of that folder, and then makes 
a server out of it. It probably should unzip it, make a new runtime out 
of that folder, and then open a new server wizard with fewer pages 
(server type already chosen, so we don't need that first page).

Runtimes have remained the same and have not changed. Only servers have.

But yes, will need to investigate how to do it cleanly.
