@Stateful isn't Seam's annotation to begin with, and most of the other 
annotations are pretty orthogonal to each other.  @Role subsumes @Name and 
@Scope, and maybe they could make it suck up some of the other annotations too. 
 You still need @Name though, or seam won't even pick it up as a component.

Consolidated annotations aren't really a panacea either -- look at Tapestry for 
how baroque those can get.  Clearly we're screaming for real syntax macros, but 
I won't be holding my breath.  Macro-haters do have one point -- textual source 
transformations suck when it comes to reasoning about code.  There's some macro 
processors for Java, but I don't think any of them support annotations, and of 
course most IDEs will fight with them.  Personally, I just make use of IDE 
templates to make the copying and pasting less arduous.
