In CDI there is a definition which sounds like "an instance is a singleton in its context", context being the bean lookup definition. In maven it means calling Guice for current ClassRealm (the classloader of currently executed component - plugin for ex) so it matches. Long story short "singleton" concept never exists, it is always a singleton under some restrictions ;).
That said I wonder when an extension has mojo if the mojos shouldnt inherit from the extension classloader, it seems quite legitimate and I don't think forcing to do 2 modules is a solution (but it is clearly a workaround as of today). Wdyt?
