Christian Beikov commented on CDI-20:
-------------------------------------

I am not sure whether deltaspike already ported all of the ideas of seam catch, but I only know deltaspike so I can't speak of catch. Anyway, deltaspike did a good job with the exception event chaining which should IMO also be available for CDI events. Especially for this problem something like an event context where one could set a flag, that the current event is handled or so, would be nice.

> I would like to have the ability to stop event propagation after it is handled by any observer only for certain situations.  Is it possible to add a property to the annotation indicating whether the propagation should continue after being handled by the observer?  Alternatively, would it be more concise to add a qualifier annotation which specifies the propagation.
