JCache in itself is isolated, yes. But many implementations (RI, Geronimo simple, JCS) also bring CDI integration code so you can actually use JCache annotations without interacting directly with the CacheManager.
As far as I'm aware there is no implementation that provides this CDI integration for modern (= jakarta) versions of CDI, not even something that is shaded. This and the fact that the spec has been abandoned for more or less +5 years lead me to the conclusion that at least JCache + CDI is dead right now. We could keep a plain JCache impl in TomEE, but IMO this is out of scope. TomEE wants to be a Jakarta EE (+ microprofile) implementation, JCache is neither of those right now. My opinion isn't too strong on this matter, but these are the reasons why I removed this for now. If we find we want to keep it we can always revert. Am 16.
