Description
Currently we have lots of Producers which are not annotated with any scope. That means they will be treated as @Dependent scoped beans by default.
I suggest to explicitly annotate them either @Dependent or @ApplicationScoped (if no state information is being used) because the automatic pickup as @Dependent has side effects which not all people are aware off.
I also suggest to not declare any bean as final because this prohibits the CDI container to create a proxy for such classes. This currently doesn't happen with @Dependent scoped beans, but this might get changed in future spec versions (auto serialisation support). It also makes it impossible to @Specializes such producers.
