Right now, there are places where reflection is used even if it's not necessary. Weld SE and Servlet did originally depend on the Weld API. That's no longer the case - they both depend on the weld-core quite for a long time.

We also have three different reflection util classes:

• org.jboss.weld.util.reflection.Reflections
• org.jboss.weld.environment.util.Reflections
• org.jboss.weld.environment.servlet.util.Reflections

Ideally, there should be only one util class or one for weld-core and one for weld-environment-common.
