You don't even need that unless you want it.  When you combine jconsole 
with jboss-cli-client.jar you get jconsole with embedded CLI GUI.  But 
it's not required if you only want jconsole for jmx.

We also have the option of making these jars into an individual download 
or tell customers to get them from Maven.

How much of a benefit do we get by slimming down the Keycloak server?
