struberg  says: "This is about the discussion whether dots are allowed in @ Named("bla.blub.dings"). According to the UEL spec it is NOT allowed. This also has been confirmed by Ed Burns, back then spec lead of Servlets and UEL. JBoss still forced that into CDI. OWB never implemented it though as it is just nuts, not usable in EL anyway and also slowing down the impls."

 

It is most likely related to this change in OWB: https://github.com/apache/openwebbeans/commit/4e4962a69064585d146c71bb387a8395455e88b5
