See my previous response. The real problem is the stability of those

or retract removed features, unless you're putting together a dynamic
GUI, which is then limited in its usability (e.g. generic JMX
consoles, generic WS testers, etc.; they get the job done, they adapt
nicely, but they aren't very pretty). Best, Rob

I don't see any reason why a dynamic GUI must have poor usability.
This might have been true for the JMX console, but the management model
provides tons of metatdata. It even provides localized help text. I
believe it is possible to put together a very nice GUI for it that is
completely dynamic. The CLI GUI is already decent and it required very
little code. I see nothing that stops it from becoming extremely usable
and useful.
