Oh, trust me. I am grateful for what was accomplished and recognize that
trying to push for more could have jeopardized the whole thing. I don't mean
to question the progress.

All I'm saying is that we need to look ahead and see if we can cover this
use case in the next round. So when we go into working on this extension for
Seam, it should be with the idea in mind that this should be something that
the platform can provide (i.e., a transactional managed bean that can
receive an injected persistence context outside of a full container).
