Well, yes and no. The list of listeners that JBossWebMetaData has is
ordered (and you can replace it, of course :) ), but there's another
JBossWebMetaData for the shared web.xml that goes before it.

In the shared stuff, there's:
- a security listener which does stuff (ask Anil)
- two JSF listeners

Hum, no :( Now that you mention it, maybe I could do that "shared stuff"
handling in its own deployer, taking the "final" JBossWebMetaData and
merging it with the shared JBossWebMetaData to get a "final final"
JBossWebMetaData.

Hopefully.
