NetBeans appears to have quite a rich interface after a quick read of the
link you provided.  But it's an IDE so it has a need for all of that.

How rich an interface does JBoss need, I have been just sort of following
the emails and not thinking too hard.  Did this need start with a desire to
load configuration files, or is there more to it?

Cheers

Lets not fall into the trap Sun did with Java and *limit* the API based
on
what plafroms do not support.

I agree that JNDI is a good choice for look up of such resources, but it
is
clear that the java.io.File crap is not sufficent for robust file
system access.

Some thing like the NetBeans FileSystem API:
http://www.netbeans.org/download/apis/org/openide/filesystems/doc-files/
api.html

Not that I have looked into it much, but the concept is solid.  Map a fs
to
a cvs repo, a website (read-only|put, read-write|get&put)...
