[cdi-dev] adding generic producers to CDI 2.0?

Hi guys, could CDI 2 do step forward for generic producers? The need is to produce any type (with a particular qualifier) without the need of an extension: @Produces @MyQualifier Object create(InjectionPoint ip) { ... } This is actually a common pattern (for configuration, or to integrate with 3rd party libs) and today the only hope to do so is to write an extension which is a bit technical and verbose for the result IMO. I guess for compatibility reason we would need to do something like: @Produces @MyQualifier @Generic Object create(InjectionPoint ip) { ... } and say that if there is a unique resolved bean thanks to qualifiers which is annotated @Generic then use this producer. wdyt?
