Dear group,

As of 2.1 the spec says, that persistence contexts are only propagated
locally, while JTA transactions
are also propagated remotely.

(assuming, all methods marked transaction required and all using the same
persistent unit:)

If bean 1 in VM1 calls bean 2 in VM2 and that calls bean 3 in VM1, then
currently there are
two distinct persistence contexts for the same JTA transaction in VM1.

IMO we should enhance the spec, and should base it around the idea:
"same VM, same JTA txn => same persistence context"

Then bean 3 would work in the same persistence context like bean 1, which I
think is desirable.

Thank you!

Christian
