Stu, whenever you do a "select for update" or any manual locking, you will end
up with an EntityManager which cannot be transfered to another node. Even if hibernate
marks it's EntityManager Serializable, it just isn't if I didn't miss
something!

absence of 'javax.ejb.Stateless' to decide if a
PersitenceUnit gets injected or if you need to do it
yourself. I think this is an unrelieable assumption. E.g.
there are a few Extensions which emulate Stateless Session
beans via a CDI Extension by morphing them into
@ApplicationScoped.
This is not ideal, but I don't think there is really any
portable way to detect if the environment is an EE
environment or not. I was originally planning to add a
method for configuring this, but it appears I did not get
around to it.

you register the bean for the EntityManager as
passivationCapable. This is never _never_ NEVER true. The
EntityManager is not Serializable! There is imo no way to
have an EntityManager in a bean scoped other than
@RequestScoped or shorter (e.g. @TransactionalScoped). Any
other trick is not working in a portable way. This is mainly
caused by JPA still supporting pessimistic locking (_real_
locks in the database) as first class citizens.

Without this it is not possible to have a conversation
scoped entity manager. The hibernate EntityManager is in
fact Serializable. Locks should not be a problem as long as
you do not attempt to serialise the EM in the middle of a
transaction.
