Okay. I've already completed 'hours' of work having a java package filled with JSF (requestscoped) managed beans that 'only' contain @FacesConverter(forClass=someClass.class) for each of my database entity classes; did that last night.
I may try to test what you recommended below for injecting beans in @Facesconverter. Question, in the foreseeable future (JSF 2.2+), what kind of performance issues will I have if 99% of my app is CDI and only @FacesConverter is defined/implemented in JSF requestscoped managed beans? Your answer may motivate me to use your suggestion below and add the @Facesconverters back to the CDI @SessionScoped beans (where the @FacesConverter's originally were defined). Thanks!
