I didn't talk about the new JBoss5 embedded console and this may address this point you bring up.

The new JBoss5 embedded console will actually ship with the RHQ "plugin container" running in-process with it.  So, the "big iron" and the embedded console will use the same RHQ plugin architecture.  The embedded console will actually be:

a) a web app war with its own little seam-based UI (not the big-iron RHQ core UI but with some shared RHQ UI code nonetheless)
b) the RHQ plugin container (the same plugin container running in the RHQ Agent - the RHQ Agent is just a shell that wraps the RHQ plugin container)
c) the RHQ JBossAS5 plugin, which is deployed in the plugin container

So, it is concievable that you could write your jbm management UI and have it interface with the RHQ plugin (that talks to your jbm management interface) by embedding the plugin container just like the JBoss5 microcontainer's embedded console will do. That way you have one plugin that works in either your smaller mgmt UI console AND the big-iron RHQ Server stuff.
