We did talk about this at great length before.   I tried and tried to 
preserve the "drop it in the file system" approach.  It just plain won't 
work for domains.

We have 5 ways to add a provider:
1. CLI
2. CLI GUI
3. CLI script
4. Explode the WAR in the subsystem and drop it in WEB-INF/lib
5. Use the war dist and do it the old way.

Why are these not sufficient?
