Mircea, thoughts? JmxRegistrationManager was thought of as a replacement for CacheJmxWrapperMBean, which would simplify JMX development by allowing annotations to be used. This is approach is not necessarily standing anymore, with development being done on Infinispan only. So I guess we can suggest users to use the old code as it does the job.

In infinispan, we can expose CacheManager as an MBean to have access to it: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/ISPN-118
