IMO an HTML interface is maybe good to look what is going on on the
App. Server but not good to maintain and control an App. Server.
Have a look at the Netscape IPlanet Admin. Console (HTML) against
Java Web Server Admin. Console (Applet, which was not very well
implemented but it works).
As I already said there must be a reason why both BEA and IBM
uses an application instead of a Web interface for its administration
console.

To get or set an attribute or invoke a method JMX uses a number of
calls to od it which slows down the performance. I think we can go
around this on a pure Java based solution and still keep some of
the features of JMX.

I hadn't time to have a look at it but I was proposing a out of the
JBoss JVM solution and I think this won't work.
