Hey, Werner, Ed. :)  I've done a fair amount of work with JMX, though 
I'm no expert.  I use it indirectly on the GlassFish Admin Console, 
after a fashion, and Ryan and I did a little work with JMX extensions to 
Mojarra that died on the vine due to lack of time.  I'm still trying to 
get caught up from being out on vacation, but I'll try to find some time 
to read over your proposal and see if I have any thoughts regarding that 
and JMX, such as they may be. :)
