Yes, but I'm saying that is wrong.

The old register(ObjectName name, Collection<ObjectName> dependencies)
is ok for backwards compatibily, but it isn't flexible enough
to do everything we want to do going forward,
like have an EJB depend on a POJO.

The EJB metadata is correct, the legacy ServiceController api
is too restrictive.
