We chose @Veto originally, as it didn't deviate from the spec's veto() method, so should be less of a learning curve. I don't like @Deactivate as it makes it sound like you have to activate other beans. @Ignore is too overloaded a term for me to be comfortable with it (@IgnoreWarnings). I like @Exclude as it's closest to what makes most intuitive sense.
