Were these requests ever filed in the ejb-spec JIRA? If they were not,
we didn't know about them. If they were and we missed them - sorry. An
API change is a tricky thing because what can be seen as a simple
change, might break an existing application (or cause unnecessary
warnings for that matter).
That said, which Exception#getCause() do you have in mind? All EJB
exceptions inherit getCause from Throwable.
