Seam is much more than WebBeans.
Yes, JSF 2 will fix a lot of issues JSF has today (that Seam addresses so well today). But at its core, Seam is an integration framework that brings together more than a dozen popular open source frameworks under the same annotation model (jbpm, drools, itext, quartz, GWT, just name a few).
Seam will have value as long as continue to add support for "other" frameworks to it. It is more a programming model than a framework in the traditional sense.
cheers

GWT, huh ?
I didn't see an example yet.
How ?
I'm not the expert but how GWT fits into Seam (which uses JSF as the presentation tier) ?
AFAIK, in order to use Ajax in JSF application, special techniques should be used to integerate with JSF Request Processing Life Cycle.
I'm not sure GWT supports this, please correct me if I'm wrong.
