I prefer to be explicit about what the packaging is for and it is for
seam-gen(erated) apps; not Seam in general.

Fair enough, so if I understand correctly, Seam allows for a pretty
flexible deployment similar to JBoss nested deployments?
From the user's perspective, wouldn't it be better to call it a "Seam
JAR" or some such rather than "seam-gen".. just to avoid confusion? The
configuration only dictates a "default" packaging scenario anyway. Once
the user is done setting up the JAR, they have full control of modifying
it however they see fit.
