I think the keywords here are "should" and "must". A bean "should not"
have such methods, but I see no compelling reason to extend this to
"must not". It is a matter of design, and obviously one would want to
avoid it as much as possible. But if, for some obscure reason, this is
not possible then I would want to have the possibility to do it.
Just my 2 cents..
