Yeah, I saw from the package structure that it's easy to add multiple adapters.

As far as Sun's Reference HTML Adapter... we'll need to add support
for DisposableBean and for setting the MBeanServer before the call to
start().

I spent yesterday hacking log4j to work with JMX 1.2 code.  I was able
to control log4j via JMX and the HTMLAdapter inside a Spring app. 
Very cool!  Log4j, unfortunately, doesn't look too active these days,
and I'm not sure how receptive they'll be of my updates.

Which begs the question: would it be helpful for Spring to include
updated JMX 1.2 support for Log4j?  This would be a really big help I
can imagine.  We've already found it very useful to be able to manage
our logging during runtime.
