So you want to be able to manually create a list of new uniquely isolated SFSBs on each call to your JSF action? This sounds like a bad thing. What is your use case? In any case, see if adding @Intercept(InterceptionType.ALWAYS) to your component definitions help. I have a feeling that you're missing out on the normal invoke_application injection when you create your components via Component.newInstance().
