I don't think that's a good idea. We've already had one round of such 
changes from JBoss AS4 to JBoss AS5 where we changed the package names 
of those annotations from org.jboss.annotation.* to 
org.jboss.ejb3.annotation and users still keep running into problems 
with that.

Also, I don't see why EJB3 needs to depend on that PicketBox annotation 
for managing security. Why not continue using the EJB3 @SecurityDomain 
and we internally pass on the relevant information to the PicketBox 
project for security management. Or are you saying that PicketBox is 
going to scan EJB3 classes for those PicketBox specific annotations?
