[cdi-dev] [JBoss JIRA] (CDI-162) Support Extended Persistence Contexts in Managed beans

From a clustering/passivation point of view, EntityManager's that have joined a JTA transaction, shouldn't be replicated or passivated (see above quote from EJB3 spec "A container may only passivate a stateful session bean instance when the instance is not in a transaction."). Without a JTA transaction, no database locks should be held. Obviously, there is more to your comment than I am understanding (otherwise you wouldn't of said that there is a problem. Even though I'm not yet understanding the locking issue, I still think that applications will be written to avoid problems that could occur (at least they will want to).
