Yes, your approach is also ok. I was about to create the servlet I have
mentioned. Now I'm wondering which one is the best approach.
About reloading rules with declared types, yes, there is a known issue. They
are added multiple times in the classloader leading to ClassCastExceptions.
We are working on a solution. It would be nice if you could file an issue in
Jboss' jira (https://jira.jboss.org/) to keep track about the progress.
