+/**
+ * Extension point for propagating request-scoped context across the async 
task boundary.
+ *
+ * <p>Each implementation is responsible for a single piece of request-scoped 
context (e.g. realm
+ * identity, authenticated principal, request ID). Implementations are CDI 
beans (typically
+ * {@code @ApplicationScoped}). {@link TaskExecutorImpl} discovers all 
implementations via CDI
+ * {@code Instance} injection, so adding a new propagation concern requires 
only a new bean — no
+ * existing code needs to change.
+ *
+ * <p>Lifecycle:
+ *
+ * <ol>
+ *   <li>{@link #capture()} is called on the request thread (active request 
scope). The
+ *       implementation reads its relevant context and returns an opaque 
snapshot.
+ *   <li>The snapshot is carried across the async boundary together with the 
propagator that created
+ *       it.
+ *   <li>{@link #restore(Object)} is called inside the task thread's new CDI 
request scope. The
+ *       implementation re-establishes its context from the snapshot and 
returns an {@link
+ *       AutoCloseable} for cleanup after the task finishes (e.g. MDC 
restoration).
+ * </ol>

<strong>immutable</strong> and

Review Comment:
   Agreed that MDC should not shape the core SPI. In the updated shape, 
capture() returns a RestoreAction that encapsulates both state and restore 
logic. RestoreAction extends AutoCloseable with a default no-op close(), so the 
base contract has no cleanup requirement.
   
   MDC save/restore is now internal to RequestIdPropagator's action. The SPI 
itself does not mention MDC, and 
RealmContextPropagator/PrincipalContextPropagator do not override close().
   
   I considered having TaskExecutorImpl manage MDC directly, but that means the 
executor needs to know which propagators need cleanup and what that cleanup 
looks like. That goes against the "caller should only deal with one object" 
direction. WDYT?
