[wildfly-dev] Classpath management for as7.2 / eap6.1 / wildfly

Okey - but we need *something* for AS 7.1+/EAP 6.0+ ..or you should be ok
with us "guessing" the list of jars to add...

Is there anyway we can figure out the jar location for a set of jars based 
on a list of module names ? i.e. one that you guys would not call "broken and not supported"  ? :)
i.e. a "jboss module/AS aware jar locator"

I'm thinking we get our eclipse tooling to understand module names and then use this locator
to get the proper jars would be a great start.

Then add ons like the txt in root of distribution can be tweaked out on top of this.
(since we would need this 'locator' for the txt file anyway - especially with layering and patching
being added making hardcoded fileset's not good)

Would that be doable ?
