> Document that an implementation of the Authenticator interface *must not* be @Stateless. It is not obvious from the documentation and can cause fatal bug in an application. The bug may not actually be reproducible in a development environment and only manifest itself in production, when the SLSB pool serves different instances for each invocation.
> Besides a note in the docs, I would suggest that seam-security validates this, e.g.:
> {noformat}
>     public void validateAuthenticatorImplementation(@Observes ProcessSessionBean<Authenticator> event)
>     {
>         if (SessionBeanType.STATELESS.equals(event.getSessionBeanType()))
>         {
>             event.addDefinitionError(new IllegalStateException("Authenticator " + event.getBean().getClass() + " cannot be a Stateless Session Bean"));
>         }
>     }
> {noformat}
