I can understand that, currently I know of Interceptor style
functionality in EJB, Spring, Guice, Seam, Struts2.... No nead for
making that list longer.

I have never seen such functionality, but will look in to it. I wonder
if some configurable object factory support is really what we need.
i.e. a IObjectFactory style interface that can be implemented via
Spring, Guice... and then be set as a JAX-RS config parameter in
web.xml.
