Hello,

what you are describing looks like a user error. Basically, for a given 
scenario it can be uncertain who's handling injection and I can imagine some 
cases where there can be race between then two frameworks.

Side note - Validator doesn't have EJB dependency and we don't want to add it 
anywhere outside of EJB module. We would have to use WeldEjbValidator instead.

However, looking at specs, I didn't find any note on this so basically it is 
undefined and I don't think we should validate it because:
1) it is a definition error that can be caught even by IDE (= before app runs)
2) we do not know how EJB subsystem reacts to similar situation, different 
servers might have different solutions in place already
3) I would say this is a rare case and one where you usually realize what's 
wrong pretty fast unless you just keep slamming multiple annotations you don't 
understand onto fields ;-)

Similar scenario would emerge with Resource annotation or with 
com.google.inject.

Regards
Matej
