AFAIK, the ejb-jar.xml file is required by OpenEJB to discover ejb modules. I think for each ejb-jar, OpenEJB looks for ejb-jar.xml in the INDEX.LST

Right, we don't scrape every class on the classpath for performance reasons. Being able to narrow down the searching scope dramatically improves performance.

Recursion, check out the section titled "Including/Excluding paths (advanced)" on the page you mention. It should answer your question. If not definitely let us know and we can improve that document.
