I haven't thought this through yet but I wonder if it would be helpful to mark a Bean as synthetic or not—i.e. discovered by means of the "normal" bean discovery process, or programmatically added by a portable extension. I was mentally working through what it might take to write up a sort of CDI reporting mechanism—something that would report on what beans where found, where they came from, what interceptors are enabled and why, etc. etc. etc. and realized one axis of this would be whether a portable extension was involved with certain beans or not. Should I file an enhancement/feature request, or is this something that was already debated and turned away at some point in the past?

I'm not sure it's worth specification. As Matej mentioned the ProcessSyntheticBean event should do the trick.

Something like Weld Probe [1], cdeye [2] or VisualEE [3]?
