> It would be useful if Java enums were included in the CDI annotation scan.
> A use case for this is found in the Seam Faces project, where we would like to use annotations on enums for configuration purposes.  The annotation would look like:
> @ViewConfig
> public enum Pages {
>     ...
> }
> It is my understanding that the current CDI specification (1.0) does not require scanning of the enum and will not pick up the @ViewConfig annotation.
