[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (WFLY-2946) Improve 'cd' behavior in batch mode

[Brian Stansberry (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-2946?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12992468#comment-12992468 ] 

Brian Stansberry commented on WFLY-2946:
----------------------------------------

There might be other examples besides this one, but I can certainly imagine a case where a single 'add' would produce a resource tree instead of just a single resource. And the CLI wouldn't be able to know that would happen.

For example, a resource with child resources for various properties might take an optional 'properties' param in its add handler and if present just add all the children.

> The problem is the 'cd' behavior discussed in my comment. A 'cd' in batch mode seems to have triggered the CLI validating the location (or some other op against the address), which fails since the previous batch step that created the location hasn't executed.
> Would it be better to simply accept the address in batch mode, or somehow be a bit smarter?
