humm... ok, for sure it will solve my problem now.. but in a strange way..

it will allow any application to touch the persistence layer of my
original application.

I believe that sharing ejb-jar is a extreme useful feature for
Glassfish, but it should also include a management on which context
can access which resource.. or at least provide some security
mechanism..

* of course I can use tricks to simulate that, and if I control my
server I can manage the security somehow.. but I feel we really need
such feature.. I will open an issue asap.. if one of you has another
observation on top of this topic, please share with us..
