@FlashScoped exists but doesn't?

[phantasmo]

I am totally puzzled by the flash scope. Seam Faces module page claims it implements javax.faces.bean.FlashScoped, even says so on the very first page, yet this scope doesn't even exist, nor does the annotation/interface that Seam supposedly implents!

Could anyone please help me understand what is going on? Did this annotation get dropped from the spec at some point and Seam page accidentaly never changed the description?

Thanks.

It can't be that noone on Seam forums knows this!?

nope.. we hadnt a clue.

but seriously things are changing and that documentation isnt so much. either way it was dealing with the context.. not the non existent annotation.
