Sorry, but as this is for development I don't think this should be a set in stone thing.
I can deploy a new ear/war, and not want those settings copied across in my development. The only time I would want to copy all my datasource's etc. would be if I was going into a production scenario, but that's me. I am sorry but I would not be advising people that they SHOULD not be using the main instance for development.
