Add SPI to customize the qualifiers to use for a particular bean [SPR-14725]

[spring-projects-issues]

Stéphane Nicoll opened SPR-14725 and commented

The container is currently looking at very specific places to figure out the qualifiers of a particular bean dependency:

• The bean factory method, if any (i.e. the @Bean method)
• The target class (annotations at class level)
• Additional checks on the bean definition itself (we should check if those are properly documented)

Certain bean definitions are created on the fly and do not have a "bean factory method". Yet, it would be very interesting to specify a places where qualifier information is to be found.
