[jboss-as7-dev] AS 7 as a service to local users

[Carlo de Wolf]

A cheap intermediate way would be to allow any user to boot up a 
configuration.

As an experiment I installed AS into /tmp/jboss-as as root and tried 
booting up (a non-existing) ovirt configuration as a regular user.

$ ./standalone.sh -Djboss.server.base.dir=/tmp/ovirt/standalone
...
java.io.FileNotFoundException: /tmp/jboss-as/standalone/log/boot.log 
(Permission denied)
...

Plus the wrong logging.properties get applied.

I think it might be a valid alternative until we get true multi-tenancy, 
but it would require some patching.
