Description
In order to not have to re-write all 700+ integration test methods, it may be more time-efficient to write an adapter to allow the RMI-based tests to run over Ice.
This would work in that an interceptor would receive the call, transfer the ome.model.* objects to omero.model.* objects, make the call, and then do the reverse transformation with the return value.
There is obviously some performance overhead, but in the tests this is unimportant.
The question is if this would also be useful as a mid-term solution for porting between JBoss and Blitz. If this works well, JBoss could become an optional feature as early as milestone:3.0-Beta4, if WebAdmin? is ported to WeBlitz? (WebLitz?? OmeroWeblitz??)

Won't be happening for 4.0. Pushing to 4.1 where we can look at build/testing stuff.

Won't have time to port all the tests for 4.1. But as soon as we do a general cleanup, it should be considered.

#1106 chose to not use this as a mid-term solution. The question now is whether or not it's worth it for preserving our components/client tests or not. The implementation is 60-70% finished, but the last bit could obviously be the hardest. Most likely it's better to just convert them all. Also makes for better examples.
Is this something we could all do together?
