Comment #68 on issue 62 by james.st...@gmail.com: Lifecycle support http://code.google.com/p/google-guice/issues/detail?id=62
I don't see why any particular Scope should be special and be able to do proper lifecycle starting & stopping of resources while others are not. Whether a Scope is application/singleton or page/request/session or some other kind of scope (conversation or whatnot) - its a pretty basic requirement to be able to cleanly start and stop resources without developers having to patch/hack/fork a DI container or jump through silly hoops.
Pico & Spring have supported this for like 5 years; they make it easy for a developer. Its pretty sad there's still a discussion on this 4 year old issue which has been fixed in pretty much all DI engines ever - apart from Guice :(. I still can't fathom the push back. Maybe Guice committers just really get off on saying no? :)
