Thanks for the info.  I saw examples where the entities had @Name notations on them, so I started doing that, but that actually caused me a lot of confusion.  When I use an outjection I can control the scope of components which are not @Named entities, but if it is @Named then the @Name setting controls the scope... that confused me a lot.  It seems easier to just not put a @Name on the various entities, and use @Name only for actions.  Then if I want to alias something I'll do that in components.xml, but I don't even need to do that.  I would prefer to access userHome.instance instead of just user, because to me there's less ambiguity about which user I'm talking about with userHome.instance.

Thanks for clearing this up.
