[infinispan-dev] EvictionListener.preEvict() vs postEvict()

Is there a reason why we have two listener methods for eviction? Can we affect the behavior of the eviction if we do something in preEvict()? To me, it seems like we cannot and I failed to see what benefits there are to have the two listener methods. Also, preEvict() has no value parameter, but the value of the to-be-evicted entry seems to be always known when preEvict() is called. Is there a reason why preEvict() doesn't have the value parameter? I also wonder modifying the EvictionListener interface will affect the users breaking the backward compatibility with 4.1. I merely thought it will break the backward compatibility because it's a public interface, but I realized that it might not be the case while I'm investigating ISPN-703, which also makes changes in the public interface.
