Ah, you're tackling this from the other end. ejb3-mc integration as described in the blog post is how I enabled @EJB injection into MC Beans. Here you're trying for custom annotation support on EJBs. As EJB bean impl classes are not installed as MC beans, the annotation plugin is not getting called. To complete the equation we'd need to revisit the EJB injection framework to leverage MC a bit more to do both this example, and stuff like @Inject MC beans into EJBs.
