Hey guys,

I noticed in the EJB 1.1 spec that the container is responsible for
preserving the following types across ejbStore/ejbLoad calls:

serializable objects
primitives
references to EJB objects
references to home objects

I also noticed that the container is responsible for preserving the
following types across ejbPassivate/ejbActivate:

serializable objects
nulls
references to EJB objects
session contexts
environment naming contexts

Why are the rules different for these two cases?  IMHO the container should
be able to passivate, activate, store, and load the following types:

primitives
serializable objects
nulls
references to EJB objects
references to home objects
session contexts
entity contexts
environment naming contexts

If not, then the bean provider needs to do leg work to aid the container,
which seems anti-RAD.
