Haven't used the Geronimo's console, but i agree that JBoss' console is
minimal. However there is Embedded Jopr which provides this capability
http://www.jboss.org/embjopr . Infact, in the soon to be released 5.x
version of the AS, this embedded console will be shipped by default in the
AS http://www.jboss.org/feeds/post/jboss_as_5_0_1_ga_released.

Just some thoughts - there are other way to redeploy in JBoss :) 
1) If you are using an IDE with JBoss integration like the JBoss Tools
http://www.jboss.org/tools you can redeploy the application without having
to know, how that is done
2) JBoss AS has always provided JMX MBeans to do such stuff. The jmx-console
(http://host:port/jmx-console) has  a MainDeployer which provides a redeploy
option. The jmx-console is the minimal (admin) console that i was talking
about.

Just curious - was there some specific feature that wasn't available as fast
as some other server did? :)

Not sure, i completely understand this part :) What does "drive the
community in new direction" mean? The reason i ask this is, JBoss too
allows/encourages you to be an active part of the community. This might
include being active on the forums or providing patches/bug fixes which
ultimately can lead you to being a committer in the projects.
