True, I was just trying to think of a way that didn't rely on having to
add abstract methods just to put tags on. I seem to remember there was
some other tag parameter (finder permissions, maybe?) added for similar
reasons a while ago.

But isn't that a reason for *not* having the user add abstract
getData/setData methods with @ejb:interface-method tags? If the mechanism
changes, the abstract methods may need to be updated too (can't leave the
abstract methods there if there's no concrete equivalent generated any
more). If it's all done based solely on @ejb:data-object parameters, then
there's less maintenance needed.

Fair enough.
By the way, I assume that if @ejb:finder is no longer needed for BMP, the
finder permissions should be specified in ejbFindByWhatever()'s
@ejb:permission tags? Also, if you are using CMP and so don't include the
ejbFind methods, how do you specify transaction behaviour for the home
interface's find methods? The obvious way would be a parameter on the
ejb:finder tag (e.g. @ejb:finder transaction="Mandatory|etc."), but
there's nothing like that mentioned in the docs.
