[weld-dev] Is my class a proxy?

Not just methods, whole generic class signature is lost.
At least that's what I still got with my custom Providers (with AS7.2.0.Final).

My workaround was to explicitly set them as @Dependent scoped.

I think this got easier to do -- as there was finally some support for generic signatures generation added to Javassist.
(which is what we use in Weld)

Afair, you already have a few "custom" interfaces added, as hooks into Weld's internals,
but that is Weld specific, not CDI.
