Specify the Quartz job name for @Asynchronous methods
-----------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBSEAM-4399
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBSEAM-4399
             Project: Seam
          Issue Type: Feature Request
    Affects Versions: 2.2.0.GA
         Environment: JBoss 4.2.x, JBoss 5.x, Quartz
            Reporter: Nikolay Elenkov
         Attachments: quartz-job-name.patch

When using the Quartz dispatcher, Seam implements asynchronous methods by creating Quartz job and trigger 
for every method, annotated with @Asynchronous. The QuartzDispatcher class uses UIDs for the job and trigger names, 
in order to generate unique names. While this is OK for one-off jobs and asynchronous events, it is not  suitable for 
repeatable and cron jobs that might have to be paused, cancelled or rescheduled by the application. Jobs should 
have meaningful names, especially when they are saved in a database store.  

Requesting a means to specify the Quartz job name when declaring an asynchronous method. One way to do 
this is to add a new parameter annotation, JobName. The Quartz dispatcher should inspect the asynchronous 
method parameters and use the one annotated with @JobName (if any) as the base for the job/trigger name.
