[JBoss-dev] calling a super method implementation

[Emmanuel Bernard]

The reasoning behind that is the EJB3 spec

A class is permitted to override an inherited callback method of the 
same callback type, and in this case, the overridden
method is not invoked. Note that if *a method overrides an inherited 
callback method* but specifies a different lifecycle event or *is not a 
lifecycle callback
method* (ie not annotated), *the overridden method will be invoked*.
