This page
https://community.jboss.org/wiki/HowToPutAnExternalFileInTheClasspath details
how to put a directory on the AS7 classpath which is inconvenient and could easily be done
by default.
If AS7 out of the box came with /standalone/classes or /standalone/conf (conf would
introduce a bit of backwards compatability) and perhaps /standalone/lib/*.jar added to the
classpath it would be as good as previous JBoss versions.
This could be implemented as a module as in the above documents and automatically added
to classpaths if the dirs exists in the same way other modules are automatically added to
the CP if certain criteria are met.
Ideally is should be possible to make these symlinks on win7 and nix. Since it is natural
to put config in /etc per Linux file system standards.
