Well, I think my issue as that it worked the exact way I needed it to work,
so I figured I was fine :-) . Obviously though, I ran into some limitations
with it.
So just to bounce some ideas off you guys; what would be the correct
approach in this case? Assuming that I want it to be taken into account when
resolving injection points, do I need to gather metadata around injection
points and dynamically build producer method impl's that are generated at
deployment type via an extension that did something like:
1. Scan for any injection points that match the type(s) as well as
qualifier(s) that I am interested in.
2. Also understand the scope of the object they are being injected into.
However, it seems like producers are the one thing that you cannot register
at runtime/deployment time. Is this a case where I would need to create
bean instances instead of producer instances?
Thanks for the help guys

you've got
@Nonbinding the wrong way up completely.

This thought is roughly what I was trying to dive through.

@Nonbinding affects type bean resolution, which is an orthogonal concept to
scoping of beans.

The
CDI container should be able to differentiate the two, since they have
different values on the qualifier. However, CDI disallows this since the
producer methods used to create them would not have access to the injection
point. If a second injection point is found, CDI should return the same
instance.
