{quote} By not providing a scope bigger than 1 per WAR, we DO NOT HAVE THOSE AFOREMENTIONED PROBLEMS IN CDI. {quote}
OK, assume there is a shared @RequestScoped bean R in the shared library injected both into a Servlet in your web app and into the MailService in the shared lib. No alternatives nor specialization this time. What you say is that the Servlet would operate on a different instance of the same R bean than the MailService? In the same call stack during processing of the single same request? How is that consistent? Maybe we could do a poll if this is what people want ;-)

{quote} on which part? On the 'unusable' or the 'multiple contextual instances per Injection Point for the same call stack'? {quote}
I disagree that it is unusable.

> Since @ApplicationScoped currently is defined in 6.5.2 as to be 'like in the Servlet specification' this means that you will get a new instance for every WebApplication (WAR file).
> There is currently no specified CDI scope for providing a single shared instance for a whole EAR.
> We could (ab-)use @Singleton for that, but this is currently not well defined at all.
> Alternatively we could introduce an own new annotation like @EnterpriseScoped or likes.
