This issue seem to drop off the radar (my fault) so I opened two issues
on it:
GLASSFISH-15150 <
http://java.net/jira/browse/GLASSFISH-15150>Multibyte
characters do not appear to be supported in domain.xml
GLASSFISH-15151 <
http://java.net/jira/browse/GLASSFISH-15151>Need CLI
for manipulating properties
I know this is late in the cycle, so please let me know how I can help.
I have basic AdminCommand authoring knowledge, which I'm happy to put to
use if you need me to.
