Unexpected behaviour from @JsonbTypeAdapter when marking a field

[jsonbrobot]

Changing the order of the fields in a Java Bean changes the behaviour of JsonbAdapter.

Given the JsonbAdapter :

public class FirstNameAdapter implements JsonbAdapter<String, JsonValue> {
    @Override
    public JsonValue adaptToJson(String firstName) {
        return Json.createValue(firstName.subSequence(0,1).toString());
    }
    @Override
    public String adaptFromJson(JsonValue json) {
        return json.toString();
    }
}

And the Java Bean:

public class Author {
    @JsonbTypeAdapter(FirstNameAdapter.class)
    private String firstName;
    private String lastName;
    // plumbing code omitted
}

The adaptToJson() method is called twice, once for the firstName field and again for the lastName field. Change the order of the fields as follows:

public class Author {
    private String lastName;   
    @JsonbTypeAdapter(FirstNameAdapter.class)
    private String firstName;
    // plumbing code omitted
}

and only the firstName field is passed to the adaptToJson() method.
