I think this happens at startup actually... well at least it tries to write
to the file on boot. If you make jboss.jcml read-only, the container will
not start propertly.
This seems like a very, very poor design choice. The application should
never actually modify its configuration. Perhaps it might be better to have
it complain if the config should be changed... perhaps with the correct
values, but it should never change it.
