You can still benefit from Dependency Injection and keep supervision working. For example my project: AkkaGuice: https://github.com/chanan/AkkaGuice
You can choose to inject a fully formed actor into your code (with all its dependencies resolved) which will indeed only give you a top level actor, but you can also use the PropsContext which will give you the resolved props of an actor to be used as a child actor.
