It will be a good experience for me, since I haven't done any Interceptor/Annotation integration before. The seam example makes it look easy enough. Still, it's just frustrating that I can't configure my way out of this one. There's this nice clean mechanism for determining whether a user has permission to do something, yet I can't catch the big ugly exception when there's a failed permission check from the EJB annotation.
