   Issues:
   - exceptions - too many "throws Exception"
   - double check the interfaces 
   - start removing the use of the experimental methods in tomcat, then remove
     the methods ( before 1.1 final )
   - is the security enough to prevent Registry beeing used to avoid the permission
    checks in the mbean server ?
