There's an open CDI spec ticket https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-632
But it seems that this property isn't handled presently in OWB. Its basically whether to turn on whether JARs without any beans.xml should be CDI archives. It probably makes sense to handle this property in CDISeScannerService and override the resulting scanOnlyBeansXmlJars to be true/false depending on this property being set. John
