In the case of MDBs and EJB Timers, our implementation does not deliver these callbacks until
the entire application has been initialized. This ensures that all other application services on which
the application code in the callbacks might depend has been initialized.
Regarding EJB Singletons, they are certainly one of the most requested features so they're
a prime candidate for EJB 3.1. You're right in pointing out that the initialization ordering issue
will need to be addressed for them as well. Thanks for the feedback!
