6. Create a module for your new provider.  Import that module (with 
service import too) into the main Keycloak module.  Of course this 
requires knowledge of JBoss Modules.  Not sure if this would work.  You 
tell me.

BTW, come to think of it, this upload through CLI just won't work, if 
the provider has even one third-party library dependency.

Stan, can you explain again the issue with domain mode?  Is it that 
you're trying to secure the domain controller itself with keycloak?
