I have to correct a few things:
a.) This whole scenario is NOT defined in the CDI specification
b.) This scenario in question is defined by the EE umbrella specification
c.) The behaviour of OWB/TomEE is perfectly fine from an EE umbrella perspective
d.) It also absolutely makes sense
e.) See CDI-129. You did blow a whole into Weld a long time ago, now you have to live with
it. Otoh that doesn't render the structure and behaviour of EARs useless...
f.) OWB doesn't have this problem as the proxy will resolve the correct instance for
each request. A request to any of the other WARs will use the original bean, while a
request to the 'special' WAR will use the @Specializes class. This is imo also
what makes the most sense for users.
g.) Weld behaviour renders EARs dead and useless. We could go on and remove them from the
EE specs at all in that case...
h.) And then I wonder why we have Enterprise EE Servers at all if not even EARs work...
i.) I suggest to seek clarification from Linda and Bill resp the EE umbrella EG.

Ok, thanks. From my point of view this violates the EE class loading rules.
