Again, late to the party, but I agree with Emmanuel. Modules is imo to AS specific in order to encourage it as a default/referred configuration approach. I see it more as an expert mode to configure your app server.
And is not also dangerous to fiddle too much with the modules? Adding new modules might be ok, but often you end up updating others as well (talking EL and Bean Validation) and there you don't know whether you break another subsystem. Also it adds additional constrains when deploying the app server and app. It is not just about dropping in a ear/war anymore, suddenly I have to "patch" my app server first.
