* Application wide contextual identifier service which allows a serializable reference to a contextual to be obtained, and the
* contextual to be returned for a given id.
*
*
* If the contextual implements PassivationCapable, the id will be obtained from it, in which case the Contextual can be
* activated in any container. If not, the Contextual can only be activated in this container.
*
*
* Note that this allows a Bean object to be loaded regardless of the bean's accessiblity from the current module, and should
* not be abused as a way to ignore accessibility rules enforced during resolution.
