I made a little progress;-)

Ejbs and ejb modules (representing ejb-jar packages) are now mbeans
participating in service lifecycle management, so mbeans configured from
service.xml files can depend on them.  resource adapters already were
mbeans.  sar/bare service.xml packages, ears and wars are not yet
represented by mbeans.  There is not yet a way to make an "ejb mbean" (the
Container) or an Ejb Module mbean depend on anything simply because there
is syntactically nowhere to write the dependency.  This could be in
jboss.xml pretty easily.  To make an (ear) application depend on something
we'd need a jboss-application.xml.

I haven't had a chance to work on the xml transformation stuff yet.  Do you
think it or the new jca connection manager framework is more important?

This works great for object instances (actual mbeans) but I don't see how
it applies to the "where is my class" issue.
