hi arjan,
in case of weld issues (like unsatisfied dependencies in an ear), it isn't
an issue jsf (or an add-on for it) can handle.
-> if you care about those cases, you can use a packaging trick or just
switch to owb (in my blog you can see what that means for weld based
servers).
(in addition everybody is welcome to help us to convince the cdi-eg.)
however, the correct handling of dependent-scoped converters and validators
is also quite important.
most implementations i've seen so far don't do the proper cleanup (as
specified for dependent-scoped beans).
what we have in myfaces-core is not 1:1 the same as in deltaspike.
however, both follow the same idea for a proper cleanup as well as for a
portable restore to ensure filled injection-points
(without the overhead we had in codi to support jsf 1.2).
regards,
gerhard
