Right, right. We were thinking along the same lines there. The point is,
right now, the embedded AS is meant to be booted by a test in some way.

That's a great step. But what would really score with developers is if you
can do:

mvn jbas:run

Note the change from jboss to jbas. Personally, I think we should consider
(maybe a vote) using this new abbreviation to help distinguish JBoss from
JBoss AS. Just throwing it out there. If not, "jboss:run" will do.
