Yeah ignore that, I half read the post. Technically deployments do need 
to see the API classes, there is nothing wrong with that.

However I am not so sure about:

<!-- CXF META-INF servicies -->

 > <!-- CXF JAXWS API impl -->
 > <module name="org.jboss.ws.cxf.jbossws-cxf-client" services="import"/>

In pricipal user code should only need to import an API. Then the 
container impl takes care of passing a ref that is castable to the API. 
The one exception is of course, static factories, which are more complex 
to solve. I assume thats why we have service loader imports on those.

We should keep in the back of our mind that users may want to override 
this, and go with some different JAX-WS client (sacraficing EE 
integration features). Until we have the custom classloading deployment 
config its hard to say how this will be accomplished.
