> OpenWebBeans checks classes for proxyiability by among other things checking for final methods.  The java.lang.reflect.Modifier class does not expose anything about synthetic methods and reports synthetic final methods as final.  Although it's possible to get owb to work by modifying the check to exclude synthetic methods, this puts the responsibility in a peculiar place.  The OWB folks also claim that since java 5 marking methods final has no effect on the ability of the jit to optimize method calls so there isn't really any reason to mark these final.
