[jboss-as7-dev] Definitely no subsystem support in the domain controller?

Just want to double check one last time that there will be no support for subsystems in the domain controller. For securing the management APIs the backing infrastructure that we would need to be able to connect to is most likely already covered by the login modules included within PicketBox. The integration of this with JBossAS 7 is also already working to provide a nicer schema when defining a security domain. http://community.jboss.org/thread/154409?tstart=0 If a schema already exists then the benefit of re-using it really means that administrators only need to learn how to configure these modules once rather than once for the management API and once for the actual subsystems used by servers. The first problem is that the existing parsing of the configuration will be based around the detyped API and performing operations in the context of a subsystem. Secondly operations to operate on this configuration will also be in that context. In the context of the domain controller configuration we could still re-implement the parsing and operations without the dependency of a server and the subsystem so at least the configuration appears the same even if the integration with the server is different. However the next issue that crops up using the PicketBox modules is the dependence on things like JNDI and Datasources, probably not a massive issue to solve but has there been any consideration yet regarding how to manage datasources in the domain controller process?
