Bring it ;)
I think I've already talked about it in the past. If you want to extend
JBoss at all (i.e. a security plugin) you have to hack the modules/
directory so that classes are visible. Since you've pretty much
isolated applications from app-server classloaders, I'll put $100 down
that this issue exists for other extension points as well.
