This will be a standard part of EAP 6.0, hence its inclusion in the main codebase and its proper integration as a subsystem rather than, for example, as a specialty deployment that users would have to mix with their deployments. The intent is some events within the system itself can trigger data collection as well, hence the need for an MSC service.

I doubt we're going to want this extension included in our standalone.xml in community 7.1 though. Not unless it has no significant impact on boot time and only minor memory footprint impact. If we do include it, we should include it in the other config files (e.g. domain.xml) as well to be consistent.

I'll look at this in more detail tomorrow.
