> I was running an app using deltaspike-jsf but did not have myfaces installed on my tomcat 9. This did lead to weird problems and it took me a bit to realize that the DeltaSpike JsfExtension could not get loaded as it misses the jsf api classes. 
> Sadly the java.util.ServiceLoader does blow up with a java.lang.Error and not with an Exception! In OWB we don't handle those but let them blow up. But sadly Tomcat8 and 9 also seems to simply catch them away without further notice and try to finish the app start. 
> We at least need to add some proper logging, otherwise bug hunting will be a nightmare!
