Ok, so this second @New bean is essentially a pojo (i.e. no longer an ejb)?
So currently the issue is that you could have say 10 EJBs all using the same class but different meta-data, but the NewBean.getId is generated from the class info so all 10 beans will have the same NewBean.getId and deployment will fail due to duplicate keys (specifically when adding to the BeanManagerImpl.passivationBeans collection). Any preference on how we deal with this. We can either make the ID unique for all 10 bean classes or ignore the duplicate exception. Or perhaps a third approach of refining the process of adding a NewBean for anything of BaseEjbBean so it can check to see if the class has already been registered.
