Yes, if we do all this right we'll be ahead of the game in defining  
real pluggability contracts for EE 7.   For now, I don't see a need to  
expose any additional EJB spec-level contracts for Web Beans.    
Attempting that at this point wouldn't do much good given the larger  
issue that the EJB spec itself has never attempted to define  
pluggability.   Even if we did, Web Beans integration would be the  
least of the issues we'd need to address.
