If a logout call is done, the injected Principal would still be the principal that it was before, let alone what happens if the Principal is inject in application scoped beans...

Also, the difference with the current situation is not that much then. Extended Principal: @Inject CallerPrincipal callerPrincipal; ... MyPrincipal myPrincipal = callerPrincipal.unwrap(); vs Security context: @Inject SecurityContext securityContext; ... MyPrincipal myPrincipal = securityContext.getCallerPrincipal(); Spot the differences ;) > In other words either Principal is removed from CDI spec > I think this should be done anyway. The build-in bean for Principal would be more at home with the Security API spec.
