  | If our users wants to declare queues spread in many configuration files, they can already do so by having files in separate directories (e.g. a/queues.xml, b/queues.xml,...)
  | This is a bit ugly but it works.
  | 
  | If now we want to support multiple queue configuration files from the same directory, things get more complex: we need to scan the directories to find all the matching files (e.g. ending with jbm-queues.xml).
  | Either we have to scan all the classpath or allow configuration files only on a specified directory (e.g. config) which must explicitely passed when starting an instance of messaging server. In both case, it is brittle and ugly.

  | I had a look at JBoss microcontainer deployer to get the functionality but I've not found yet how to provide it in JBM.
  | 
  | Since there is already a solution to support multiple configuration (put them in separate dirs), the only update I'd like to do is to rename the expected file names to jbm-queues.xml to avoid unlikely clash with the more generic queues.xml name.
  | If we have some more time before the release of JBM2 GA, I'll revisit this feature but in the mean time, I'll move to more urgent tasks.
