Not all simple Web Beans are JavaBeans:
* they don't have to have a default constructor
* they don't have to be serializable
True, but then again the term "bean" does not necessarily imply
"JavaBean", so there is room for the new semantics (I think). I have
always liked contextual bean/JavaBean/EJB, for what it's worth.
