[jboss-as7-dev] Configuration and user friendlyness

[Stefano Maestri]

I agree, but as answered in another thread there are (staying on your 
example of data source) some attributes we can't change runtime. We need 
to stop pools and so on.
IOW we would need for these cases a composite operation to remove 
(nicely) and re-add a resource with all attributes cloned except the 
changed ones.

Probably we need this kind of operations not only for ds and it have to 
be designed considering also the effort guys are doing for nice shutdown 
of the server.

just my 2C
