One other concern would be that in general, the EJB client generation from the same EJB module violates Maven's principle of one artifact per project/module. As I understand it today, the only benefit of using it is that it will generate a separate JAR file in the repo that can be referenced by a client as an EJB client dependency and that you can selectively filter out classes (bean classes, etc.) from the client jar (but not dependencies carried over from the EJB or any of its transitive dependencies).

Indeed we managed to let the ejb packager create the client jar and now understand why you have not been using it. Actually it is scary to see all the Class-Path entries in the client... Maybe we should file a feature request.
