AIUI Darran's objection, this isn't particularly related to domain mode.
It's that our jconsole plugin shouldn't be opening remoting connections
to an arbitrary URL when the user has configured a direct connection.
I agree with that and am fine with removing this feature from WF 8 and
just putting explanatory text in the tab.
What if they have 2 servers on the machine, one 9990 and the other on
9991 and they direct connect to the 9991 process?
