Ordering leads more to web-fragment.xml as a solution, since it's possible to have ordering control. There is no guarantee as to when a listener will load that's defined in a TLD (the advantage is only for non-Servlet 3.0 containers). Given that Weld is a new programming model and likely to be used with newer containers, then I'd say we should go with web-fragment.xml.

(Worse case scenario is we introduce a classifier for weld-servlet that will be for pre-Servlet 3.0 environments. Something like org.jboss.weld.servlet:weld-servlet:1.1:pre-servlet-3)
