thanks for asking this question!    Incidentally,  I spent the last 5 hours on 
this before looking into this forum and discovering that someone else is 
interested in this topic.

My idea (that doesn't work yet):
In my class that extends EntityHome/Customer\, where Customer is the type of my 
example Entity, I thought about adding the following method:


  |     public String reset() {
  |             log.debug("wos: kundeHome.reset() called");
  |             setInstance(null);
  |             setId(null);  
  |             return "reset";
  |     }
  |     

One thing to note is that not only the instance property needs to set to null, 
but also the id property.  If only the instance property is null, but the id  
property remains at the old value, then when getInstance() is called, 
initInstance() of org.jboss.seam.framework.Home tries to load the old entity 
again.

But my approach doesn't work yet.  And  for some reason I don't know, the 
instance property of my EntityHome component gets exported to Conversation 
scope.   Why???

For example, if my EntityHome component is named "customerHome",  then in 
Conversation scope the context variable customerHome.instance gets set.  I'd 
like to know why.   I looked at the code of EntityHome/E\ and 
Home/EntityManager, E\, but I do not find where and why  customerHome.instance 
gets set.

Any hints would be highly appreciated.
