+1 for removing it completely. As Hadrian said, we (the Camel project itself) should focus on the server side technology that we do so well.
Other projects like Karaf WebConsole, Hawt.io, Camelwatch, ... are better places to provide this kind of management functionality via a gui/console/... After some time we will see which of these projects succeed and we may decide to support the one or the others (what ever "supports" will mean - link from the Camel web site, writing a plug in, writing an example, ...).
