When I took over the project it supported pointcut matching on both Runtime visible and invisible annotations out of the box. Checking the invisible ones proved to be a pretty big performance hit, so we disabled the checking of those by default. In case this screwed up things for our users we added the ability to turn on  checking of chosen invisible annotations by specifying 

  | -Djboss.aop.invisible.annotations=org.blah.Annotation1,org.blah.Annotation2
  | 
or

  | -Djboss.aop.invisible.annotations=*
  | 
AFAIK nobody has complained about this/asked how to turn it on, although it is mentioned in the reference manual. So, either we remove support for that in 2.1.0, or have an alternative mechanism to provide for that
