CLI usability: Parse compound operation parameters
--------------------------------------------------

                 Key: AS7-2088
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-2088
             Project: Application Server 7
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: CLI
    Affects Versions: 7.1.0.Alpha1
            Reporter: Dominik Pospisil
            Assignee: Alexey Loubyansky


Currently, CLI does not parse compound operation parameters and relies on ModelNode.fromString() method.

This means that an user have to use "key" => "value" notation to denote compound parameters. This is inconsistent with the rest of CLI using key="value" notation.

As an example, to add https connector one needs to use:

/subsystem=web/connector=https:add(socket-binding=https, scheme=https, protocol="HTTP/1.1", enabled=true, ssl={ "certificate-key-file" =>"/tmp/test.key"}))

command instead of more straightforward:

/subsystem=web/connector=https:add(socket-binding=https, scheme=https, protocol="HTTP/1.1", enabled=true, ssl={certificate-key-file="/tmp/test.key"}))

This is never documented.

Also any exceptions thrown by ModelNode.fromString() are discarded. I think they should be reported back to the user. (DefaultCallbackHandler lines 448-453)
