[cdi-dev] Identify a Bean as synthetic?

[Matej Novotny]

Not sure I follow here, but as it is now, you can leverage things like ProcessSyntheticAnnotatedType, ProcessSyntheticBean etc.
You can have an observer for those and get notified of added AT, Bean, OM,...

Is that it? Or did you have something else in mind?
