Yes, all normal scopes that are available in standard Java EE support
this as far as I know.

There's the small caveat that CDI itself doesn't know about this
automatically for any custom normal scope. That implementation of such
scope (via a Context) must explicitly throw these events.

For example, this is what Mojarra does for the @FlowScoped implementation:

https://github.com/omnifaces/mojarra/blob/master/jsf-ri/src/main/java/com/sun/faces/flow/FlowCDIEventFireHelperImpl.java

Which is fired when the scope starts here:
https://github.com/omnifaces/mojarra/blob/master/jsf-ri/src/main/java/com/sun/faces/flow/FlowCDIContext.java#L431

(the exact same code is used for @ViewScoped in Mojarra as well)

Yes, that is what this does ;)

Kind regards,
