I believe that add operations are now done correctly as far as the tool
is concerned.
We needed to prompt for a resource name that gets filled into the
address path. So for:
/subsystem=logging/logger=foo/:add
The gui asks the user to fill in the resource name "foo". The add
operation should not have "name" as one of its declared parameters
because that would be redundant. (The logging subsystem is doing this
correctly, btw)

e.g. the add operation should really by on the parent of the resource being targeted. For
example, the ee extension has the add operation in its list, which gives the op:
"/extension=org.jboss.as.ee/:add(module=sasasa)". Which is a bit pointless since
it already exists, and there is no way to add a new extension. I had similar issues when
writing the management jmx facade, see ChildAddOperationFinder and its callers.

and go to the jboss.as:management=server mbean (appears as simply 'server' in the
list. This corresponds to the root resource. In the operations it has an addXXX operation
for each child type. e.g.

Or to use your logging subsystem example, go to jboss.as:subsystem=logging (appears as
just 'logging' in jconsole), and you will see addSizeRotatingFileHandler,
addPeriodicRotatingFieldHandler, addLogger etc.
