[cdi-dev] FireAsyncException question

Hi all, the CDI 2.0 EDR1, "10.5.1. Handling multiple exceptions thrown during an asynchronous event" currently states: "If an event is asynchronous, and an exception is thrown by any of its notified observers, the CompletionStage returned by fireAsync will complete exceptionally with FireAsyncException exception." And there's also an example of handle() method with lambda which gets FireAsyncException passed as an param. This looks good from the user point of view. However, what should happen if I use e.g. thenAccept() method? The CompletionStage API is clear: "Two method forms support processing whether the triggering... In all other cases, if a stage's computation terminates abruptly with an (unchecked) exception or error, then all dependent stages requiring its completion complete exceptionally as well, with a CompletionException holding the exception as its cause...". In other words, myEvent.fireAsync(...).thenAccept(...).exceptionally(...) should receive CompletionException and not FireAsyncException. This seems a bit inconsistent to me.
