I'm not disputing that CDI should provide it there, but Weld is the *reference* implementation of the CDI spec so needs to provide a reference for other people to follow.
So IOW I would like guidance from the CDI EG that they intend to change it so servlet supports conversations in the next iteration of the CDI spec.
Good, but we should definitely push for this. I don't understand why conversations got restricted to JSF in CDI 1.0. I view it as an oversight, especially since other web frameworks are going to want to participate in conversations and we even supported/prototyped this in Seam 2 with Wicket.

p.s. In a future version of the JSF spec, I foresee UI component tags being added to declaratively control conversation boundaries. (e.g., <f:conversation begin="true"/>)
