I briefly looked at the patch and found following issues:

a) DeployCommand has been changed to know about WAB. That's not allowed,
because DeployCommand does not know anything about actual containers.

b) Same with DeploymentContextImpl.

I think there are two possible approaches:
a) Allow deploy cli to accept a URI that's resolved in server side in
addition to an actual path to a file in local file system as it is
taking today.

b) Explore the possibilities of passing additional deployment properties
or deployment plan to --type=osgi deployment.

Admin team (Tom) can comment about #a, where as deployment team (Hong)
can comment about #b.
