Description

For reporting and monitoring it is sometimes more convenient to provide more complex querying features than are currently supported by the REST API, and to limit the results brought back to be only certain attributes of the queried object.

We should add mechanisms to query configured objects across the whole broker, or only those within a given virtual host (the latter including connections which are associated with a virtual host even though not directly children of that host - since connections are children of ports).
