RMI is part of EJB. It is perfectly correct and legal to use RMI to implement beans
that need to perform functions that are not allowed in the container. The RMI service
can be called by EJB (in fact the EJB would not even know it was calling an RMI if
coded correctly) and RMI can call EJB beans. The two are intended to work together.
You are not leaving EJB if you implement some services in RMI.
Perhaps some day, some one will figure out how to define a task bean that can do
restricted operations. Until then RMI services are available.

Kinda like the old saying "if you don't like America, leave it". No, I want
to change it. EJB has great promise, but it's going in directions I think
is wrong.
