The security API doesn't do anything specifically with transactions. Is this problem happening in your AuthenticationProvider? In response to your other question, no its not ready for any type of production use yet. I was hoping to get more feedback, however I'm currently thinking that I will be redesigning it using Seam interceptors and doing away with container integration. This should simplify the configuration for most people, make it more portable and also allow security to be implemented for JAVA_BEAN components.
