It seems like plexus loads all the components when the user visits the wiki for the first time on browser.

Well, I could directly load openoffice server manager component upon container initialization (DefaultServletContainerInitializer) and start the openoffice server. But we don't want openoffice server manipulation code inside DefaultServletContainerInitializer, that's why we wanted to go with ObservationManager. But then came the problem of loading openoffice server manager at startup (otherwise it will not receive startup notifications). I can't think of a working acceptable solution that will allow me to load the openoffice server manager component at startup..
