Pinaki Poddar commented on OPENJPA-117:
---------------------------------------

> Adding listeners should generally either be done as an initialization step
Of course. The use case that prompted the request is the code that registers 
listeners do not initialize Persistence/EntityManagers. At least that is what I 
gathered from the users' input. Did not feel 'strongly' about the use case 
either which reflects in the 'minor' priority of the request. 
As an alternative, one may consider a listener mechanism attached to the 
BrokerFactory itself that will notify creation/closure of managed Brokers. Then 
a user code that does not explictly control Broker may get a hook during broker 
initialization/closure.

Exposing list of listeners does raise the concern about one user removing 
others listeners -- but isn't one of the prevailing themes of OpenJPA 
architecture thrieves upon the users having deep visibility  and customization 
of its myriad internal features?

> Currently TransactionListeners can be added/removed to a broker but the list 
> of transaction listeners registered to a particular broker is not available. 
> Such a collection can be made available in read-only mode so a caller can 
> determine whether to add a new listener or not, or whether a particular 
> listener is already registered.
