I agree with you bit also the default should be smoother. Just trying to have side by side 2 confusing methods.

Like the AutoCloseable idea btw.

Yes get a method to have the wrapper to manage a single instance:

@Inject Instance i;

...

Wrapper w = i.getSelected();
...
w.getValue().businessmetd();
...
w.release();

Well, we could introduce a new wrapper and even make is AutoCloseable, e.g. something like discussed here: http://lists.jboss.org/pipermail/cdi-dev/2016-May/008241.html

But still you would have to distinguish between destroy() and release(). My original proposal was to allow a user to inspect the Bean metadata, see also https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-515. But guys convinced me ;-)
