Is it silent though on managed properties?
Actually, section 5.4.1 says this:
Methods on managed beans declared to be in request, session, or
application
scope, annotated with @PostConstruct, must be called by the JSF
implementation after
resource injection is performed (if any) but before the bean is placed
into scope.
So if the RI is processing @PostConstruct before injection, I think that
certainly needs to be changed.
