New Seam EAR projects don't include jboss-app.xml, causing classloader confusion for the inexperienced
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBIDE-1348
                 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBIDE-1348
             Project: JBoss Tools
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: Seam
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0.CR1
            Reporter: Marcus Adair


When a new Seam EAR project is created with JBoss Tools or RHDS, there is no jboss-app.xml included in the EAR META-INF directory. An inexperienced user then creating and deploying additional projects will be confused to find that both classloader namespace and component namespace conflicts occur.

I think it's fairly well established that these classloader conflicts are a source of particularly disheartening pain for new users to a Java application server platform, whether or not one agrees with a particular implementation. Generating new projects in their own classloader namespace will go a long way toward reducing the bloodletting.
