I suggested this a while back as the "Seam for Web Profile".
seam-web-profile.jar
Calling it seam.jar is *way* too ambiguous and is going to do nothing but
lead to confusion. Let's give the stack a name (such as "Seam for Web
Profile") and qualify the jar.
So +1 to that revised idea :)

That's a fair point, however to address this (and for
simplicity's sake)
what if we were to provide a combined jar that included most of the
modules? I would say that the following list represents the "core" of Seam:
Solder
Catch
Config
International
JMS
Mail
Persistence
REST
Security
Servlet
Validation
We would simply call this combined jar seam.jar, and on top of that, the
developer would also add dependencies for whatever view technology they're
using (i.e. seam-faces, errai or seam-wicket), and then the extra features
if they require them (Cron, JCR, Remoting, Reports, Social, etc). That
should greatly reduce the number of jar files in a deployment.

In my opinion the combined jar helps keep the number of JAR files down in
deployments.
