Wow, this thread was hard to read (I read it twice) ;-)
So, to make a long story short
none -> none
application -> none, application
session -> non, application, session
request -> none, app, session, req
on the left there is the scope of a bean
on the right there is the possible scope of *referenced* beans.
And, btw. for #{facesContext.externalContext.requestMap['foo']} you
can also use #{requestScope['foo']}. Same for session. sessionScope
goes to externalContext.getSessionMap();.

Whoops, I had it backwards the entire time ;) And it looks like MyFaces knows
it is illegal to inject #{facesContext.externalContext.requestMap['foo']} into
a session scoped managed bean, even though the base token of the expression is
not in request scope - just as if you tried to inject #{foo}, where foo is a
request scoped managed bean. I will have to come up with better tricks.
