Just read the javadoc of org.jboss.ejb3.annotation.Depends:
anonymous wrote : 
  | Annotation for specifying a deployment dependency for a bean.  If placed on a setter method or field an MBean proxy will be injected as well.
So injection is intentional.

Based on the above javadoc statement, looks like a valid usecase.
