Noah,
AFAIK there was no spec requirement for Embedded EjbContainer and
support for Ejb webservices. We should consider this enhancement for a
future release.

So to deal with that I added @Stateless to the @WebService class. That fixed the TX issues but broke the unit tests that try to instantiate the embedded container.
