Description

Assume that you have a @Component using a swing-like technology with a load of Listeners and callbacks.
You'll probably write something like:

button.addClickListener(new ClickListener() {
   // boilerplate code
   myDependency.useIt();
});

Where myDependency is a @Requires field.

When the listener is executed, it is used from outside of the component (from iPOJO POV), its method is not intercepted and a reference is kept in ServiceUsage$Usage.
