    Description

      This is follow up for WFCORE-2283 which marked required attributes by "*" when using tab completion. Still if there are many attributes, it's hard to see all required attributes, for example in:

      [standalone@localhost:9990 /] /subsystem=messaging-activemq/server=default/cluster-connection=my-cluster:add(
!                              check-period                   connector-name*                max-retry-interval             notification-interval          retry-interval-multiplier
allow-direct-connections-only  cluster-connection-address*    discovery-group*               message-load-balancing-type    producer-window-size           static-connectors*
call-failover-timeout          confirmation-window-size       initial-connect-attempts       min-large-message-size         reconnect-attempts             use-duplicate-detection
call-timeout                   connection-ttl                 max-hops                       notification-attempts          retry-interval

      it's not clear at the first look how many required attributes there are.

      Suggestion is to group required attributes together and then provide list of other attributes, for example on the next line. Another options might be considered as well. For example to show required attributes when double pressing <tab>.

          • Major - To be worked after higher priority work items are addressed. When the severity is high and the effort to change it is low to moderate, this term is chosen. Issues in this category likely have an existing workaround but implementation or execution may be non-trivial.
