Let me give you my example of why I want it. I worked over the trunk invoker so it would do distributed transactions. This requires at least a source of xid's on the calling side, and preferably a TransactionManager. Well, they are already there if the calling side is a jboss instance. If it's a client, the only way you will be propagating a transaction is if you have a UserTransaction. So, I'd like to implement the client-side UserTransaction to use the same mechanism, based on at least an XidFactory and perhaps a TransactionManager. These are pretty much dependent on the jmx framework. If the jmx framework is on the client, I just register the mbeans and I'm done. If not, I have to rewrite a bunch of the code to be independent of the jmx framework. Incidently, I think the client end of the trunk invoker would also be simpler if it were an mbean: in fact I think there could be a lot more code sharing between the two ends.
