Vivek,
What you suggest is different from what Byron asks.
You want to start the domain and specify the port on command line
and use it to "override" what domain.xml specifies. So, essentially,
you are asking to enhance start-domain command's syntax to accept
such overridables.
What Byron/I talk about is a way to separate asadmin options from
command options in a backward compatible manner (which is possible!)
