A unique feature for Geronimo would be the ability to override every each single JEE deployment descriptor setting with geronimo-application.xml (same as you can right now do only with geronimo-ra.xml). The JEE idea of a deployer role who changes JEE descriptors and builds applications is not practical. In practice, companies have a process that requires developers to produce ready to run applications, which are then given to IT operations (who usually adapt some property files with server names and port numbers and so on, they never change web.xml). So it would be cool if developers could furnish an application.ear together with a geronimo-application.xml (that IT operations would adapt (with a really nice and shining wysiwyg editor for geronimo-application.xml) Still better, if you could edit geronimo-application.xml via the console. I once opened JIRAs for this: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-3954 https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-4376 And, I am sure there are lots of other interesting improvement requests in JIRA ...
