But my concern is: how easy or hard will it be to create new commands and expose them through that web service ? | Depends on the signature of the commands, but in general not to hard.

If you want new ws calls for which no commands exist it is more difficult. If we just use the JbpmContext and e.g. implement HQL in there it is not difficult.

One way to get more insights is if you just go ahead and implement the basic structure.

I do not want to check it in yet though since I've made changes to the build scripts (there is a ws dir now) and some libs are required that are not in the repository yet (afaik).
