I agree.  I'd like to see single server case remain unchanged.  This 
will also keep things consistent for people who have been working with 
previous Geronimo releases.  It's ok to make it a bit more complicated 
if you want to do something more complicated - but let's not 
unnecessarily frustrate those who have been working with Geronimo and 
don't want the additional complexity.
