I need to finish up the bundle-to-non-platforms feature - the last thing 
is to modify plugin descriptors so resources can be targets for bundles.

What resource types can or should support bundle deployments and where 
should those bundle deployments be placed?

For example, in the JBoss AS 4 plugin, I added the ability to put 
bundles in two places, the "Install Directory" (denoted by the plugin 
configuration holding the home directory path) and the "Profile 
Directory" (another plugin configuration property holding the 
configuration set path).

What other plugins do we want to provide this kind of thing?

For one, I'm thinking the JBossAS 5 plugin should have the same thing as 
the JBossAS 4 plugin.

NOTE: we can target bundles to paths that are stored in a resource's 
plugin configuration, resource configuration or a metric trait value. So 
if a resource stores a path in some resource config or trait, we can use 
that too.
