Rickard,
I see your point, but isn't it likely that *portable* beans will be limited
to only the simplest schemes for container-managed persistence? It seems we
are trying to have things both ways, by touting EJB as a technology (not a
product), but deferring to specific products to solve the hard problems in
building systems.
