[jboss-as7-dev] "Read" operations

I would stick to "read" as well.
Simply to avoid ambiguity across API clients. 
I.e. a REST "GET" means you have no obligations when doing the call,
a Java "get()" imposes that most of the time, but not necessarily (think factory pattern).

IMO choosing explicit operation names is a good idea.
I.e. I would prefer:

- "read" over "get"
- "write" over "set"
- "create" over "set"
- "remove" over "set"

I hope that explains what I was trying to say.
