/**
 * Interface to allow easier detection of deactivatable classes.
 *
 * These classes are activated by default and can be disabled on demand (e.g. via CDI config).
 * Since CDI, JSF,... currently don't allow to deactivate default implementations,
 * DeltaSpike has to introduce a proprietary mechanism.
 *
 * This is e.g. used to disable CDI Extensions in DeltaSpike and might get
 * used for other Extension libraries as well.
 *
 * Note: It is suggested that the implementations
 * use the {@link org.apache.deltaspike.core.util.ClassDeactivationUtils} for implementing the lookup
