Modulo bugs and one outstanding FIXME, there is no problem even today with
unmanaged elements getting saved.

In principle, this would not be particularly invasive -- server.xml is
only read in one place (o.a.c.startup.Catalina) and written in one place
(o.a.c.mbeans.StandardServerMBean). However, you'd need to emulate the
top-down walk of the configuration graph (currently performed by Digester
as it parses server.xml) that actually causes the Catalina components to
get instantiated and configured in the right order.
Given that, I vote to put this on the "after 4.1" enhancements list.
