Technically, it would be nice to eliminate the JMSProviderAdapter all together and just extend the JmsActivationSpec to include the necessary information to acquire the connection factory, destination etc. This would eliminate another semi non-portable mechanism. Again, this doesn't solve the auto create destination thing (which again, I think is just a bad idea to begin with), but it would go a long way to making the JMS/JCA adapter more relevant in other environments.
