What is the rationale for the .deployed marker? It's really counter-intuitive. Just
make a copy to avoid locking/classloading issues and leave the original in place.
Also, for exploded deployments have a different META-INF/jboss-deploy marker to trigger
the deployment? Counter-intuitive as well. The whole idea with the ./deploy dir (or
whatever is called) is you look there and you know what gets deployed, you don't need
to traverse directories to find out. Or unzip something and it gets deployed, no need for
extra files.
IMO the AS4 model of hot-deployment (no VFS) was the most practival and successful. People
knew that to avoid the "early deployment" problem for large or nested
deployments they just have to do an atomic filesystem mv. Through stuff in and it just
gets deployed, no markers or any other type of magic. I don't see why we need to
re-discover the wheel.
