Hi Neil, thanks for the info. Yes that is what you taught last year as well. I just thought maybe this would be a nice to have extension for component DI inside bundles without exposing services to the registry. Of course, since provided by the same bundle, direct Java reference makes sense and is clearer. I also understand this makes it more streamlined in regard to lifecycle managment.
