That was certainly the intention when we designed the management API.

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.
