Description

We currently have the REQUIRED behaviour as default for our @Transactional interceptor.

Imo we should not import the javax.ejb.TransactionAttributeType to not add any additional dependency, but we should stay very close to it.

I intend to implement the following TransactionAttributeTypes:

• REQUIRED (as default)
• REQUIRES_NEW
• NEVER
• SUPPORTS
• MANDATORY
  not sure about the other ones
