I don't really like the idea of using the type of bean in the naming of
the bean. Hungarian notation is a very bad idea, and imho goes against
all the ideas of OOP. Changing a bean from stateless to statefull might
not have any implications in client's contract with the bean but if
having to change all the client code form MySillyNamedsBean to
MySillyNamedSBean would probably get a lot of people very mad ;-)
IMHO, the idea is to use nouns. It woul be entirely possible to have two
entities, ClientBean and SupplierBean that use the same statefull bean
as a fa�ade to process inclusion to your table, for Example AdminBean or
RegistrarBean. This imho is the whole idea behind EJB. Reusability of
code.
Therefore I agree with the cons, but disagree with the pro. Use a short
comment as the first line of the code to describe the bean and to
indicate wether it's Statefull Stateless of Entity.
