Whatever people want to do with their data.
Imagine you have to update all values by using some external service
which provides some needed input, or you want to find all entries by
some criteria and send them over to S3 via another service, or are
storing movies and want to encode them using some other tool you have
- these services could be invoked each time but assuming it has some
expensive initialization it's likely one wants to inject references to
initialized services and pools of resources.

This user is asking for a reference for the Cache, that's the first
step, but the next step is obviously to inject anything out of our
control; recommending a new JNDI context + lookup per entry is likely
not the most usable approach, while CDI should be simple to integrate
and provide lot of value.
