I think this is a very bad idea. It's better not to use either API and wait to sort
out how CompletableFuture can be used in EE consistently. Because of backwards
compatibility rules, it is better to have no API than a bad API.

was supposed to represent the different flavours (thenRun, thenCompose, ...) ;).
That said I agree on the state switching the pool is better but with these 2 notes:
- could be better to hide these poorly designed methods then -> don't use
CompletionXXX but a CDI API with a bridge to CompletionX to let the user go back on SE
tools
- we still don't have a *standard* config for the pool(s) underlying CDI features so
it sounds as poor as SE solution IMO (at least a core/max/ttl config in beans.xml)
