When SMAPI was originally written, it had a generic command interface in
it. We ripped it out specifically to prevent apps from being written that
were dependent on a specific directory manager.
Which does not prevent the user from writing their own command
interface, since SMAPI is easy to extend on the Host side.
Also, Alan, /who/ would write apps dependent on a specific dirm?
Is someone other than IBM writing apps based on SMAPI (other
than yours truly?) I ask in profound ignorance of vendor space
and app space in the VM world.
BTW, I've discovered Google Web Toolkit and am beginning to code
a PigIron/SMAPI-based VM operations navigator as a "Web 2.0"-style AJAX
up using GWT. Very cool.
