I haven't worded it yet for a definitive requirement.
There is a subtle difference between scanning & processing. What I don't want is
unnecessary processing if a descriptor is metadata complete.
Note that this only goes for EJB annotations, other annotation processing is left beyond
scope.
You may want things all you like, but it's not going to happen.
Metadata complete was changed in EE 6, and it's a lot less complete
than it was. The bottom line is if you use JSR 299, then the easiest
by far is to do scanning as before. Actually, I think it's the only
thing that is doable.
