 Why does it have to be a MDB? Can't you just make a listener? What will 
 an MDB buy you?
 

In a word: transactions (oh also instance caching for tuning but that
would be more than 1 word :) )

We use a lot of MDBs in our app for these reasons.

 Some points that people seem to be forgetting:
 - Xwork is in the SANDBOX and is eXperimental (if you like the X for that)
 - Nothing in Xwork can't be changed, these are ideas, prototypes
 - Xwork will be better for 'web work' than WebWork is!
 - Xwork will be better for 'non web work' than WebWork is, _WITHOUT_
 impacting people who don't care for 'non web work'
 
 
 That WebWork turned out to be a generic command pattern was more of an 
 accident then by design. Because of this genericity WebWork is not 
 optimally designed for doing web work. Some of the plumbing needs to 
 be done by actions themselves, instead of having it be done by the 
 framework. I want to make WebWork/XWork *better* suited for the web, 
 because that is what *I* *need*. I want to get more for less. I don't 
 give a damn about making it work well in Swing. If it does, then 
 whaddyaknow, cool. If it doesn't, shit happens. If there's ever a point 
 where I need to decide between keeping genericity, or making it work 
 better for the web, the latter is a given. My recent emails have 
 explained some of what I want to do in this area (introducing packages 
 and components for example). Some of those are VERY web-centric, and 
 that *IS THE POINT*.

I think we should keep swing clients out of the discussion at the
moment. Although I do not have very much experience with swing clients,
the design patterns differ from the request-response pattern of web or
rpc clients. So I see no problem in pushing the development slightly
away from the web to a more generic request-response pattern.

After reading this for a while I cannot recall who asked for swing
clients in the first place. I don't think they were ever a requirement. 

In terms of non web stuff I would like to see something that could talk
to JMS in an asynchronous manner but I'm not going to lose sleep if it's
outside the scope. We have developed a somewhat webwork like Message EJB
implementation which will do fine for the forseeable future.

Funny, we were just talking about this here today. We've got a simple
command pattern implementation for running batch jobs now, and I was
talking about how, if we moved to Webwork, we could make a
MessageDrivenDispatcher (an MDB) that would run jobs asynchronously...
