It would be only used by some custom JMX-embedding (and, like I said, it
never worked :).  The JMX-embedding method that does work is to invoke
"init" on the Realm, which will then add itself to whichever Container it
was registered for.

It's your todo list ;).

It will make Peter unhappy, but it wouldn't be hard.  Probably the hardest
one to do would be Connector (since you can't add a Connector to an Engine
:).  The Realm stuff that started this could probably just invoke init on
the Realm instead.
