I think this would be a bad direction to go in. I think concentrating on bridging JMS to CDI events would be far more powerful. I'm happy to bring a proposal to the group if that helps, though I think this is a topic better for the JMS EG.

I'd also like to see two distinct types of listeners -- one specific to JMS and another more generic for JCA. Each listener type would also have some powerful DI based features (such as automatically unwrapping message payloads, mapping headers to method parameters and so on). This is something we designed for Resin but have not yet implemented. We do feel is very doable and would be a good "modernization" of MDB.
