The problem with 3 is that for the most part users do not use DMR directly, they use the CLI, and all our documentation reflects this. If we use DMR directly for this it just one more thing that we require our users to learn.


90%+ of what users do in CLI is direct DMR.
Things that CLI adds that are not part of native DMR are handlers like:

- ls (instead of :read-resource),
- reload (instead of :reload)
- try,catch
- batch*
- if, else
- clear, quit
+ some others

but in general most of the commands people write are direct DMR.
CLI only adds lots of usability features on top of them like tab completion.

for example
/subsystem=io/worker=new-worker:add()
is 100% dmr operation.

In any case if we go with WildFly embedded in CLI mode all this discussion is non issue.
