it is part of the JDK since 5 so we are save to be able to run it in any
context.
Secondly it deals with configuration singletons anyway, and

http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/javax/management/Descriptor.html
seems to be able to handle get,insert,delete,update usecases.


But I am by far no expert in that part of the java API (I always skipped it
for not having
ever used it in my life, I just knew it existed)

So can anyone with more insight can elaborate if we can reuse it?
