This is to quickly get a 70% version out and to be able to
quickly add new monitored stuff. This should and will not
prevent us from generating more dedicated UI screens later.

This one I am no longer sure about. It was a great idea
back in the day. I see two cases
* user uses the same config for all WildFlys - why do we
want to duplicate the metadata for all of those if
the (RT) config is effectively the same?
* user has modified the agent config to have
more/less fields. In this case the current MiQ UI would
not adapt to it and in either way just not show the
data. And it may not even be clear when there are
two WildFly in inventory with different configs, why they
don't show this difference
For WildFly in container it may even be less interesting
with the current approach as here all the WildFlys will be
built on one base image (that we supply with a baked in
config?).
