[webbeans-dev] Automatically adding WebBeans configuration on JBoss 5

[Andrew Lee Rubinger]

Looks like these are metadata transformation/enhancing deployers to be 
throw into the chain:

* After merging deployer
* Before post-processing deployer
http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/jbossas/projects/ejb3/trunk/deployers/src/main/java/org/jboss/ejb3/deployers/Ejb3MetadataProcessingDeployer.java

How to insert deployers into the chain between X and Y without altering 
the input/output of X and y?
