Potential tools/libraries that already work through database upgrades:
Liquibase - http://www.liquibase.org/, strongest, mature available tool (based on my research). JPA or integration effort unknown. Used in Grails database migration plugin.
Flyway - http://flywaydb.org/, comparatively new, but gaining lot of traction. Used in Spring Roo as add-on (http://code.google.com/p/spring-roo-addon-flyway/)
There are others, however these two seem to be the strongest candidate given they already have been used in similar plugin approaches. Personally I have had good experience with liquibase as a standalone database change tool, but never used it tightly coupled with a programming language for domain<->db change management.

> Recommend idea for adding a database change plugin. The Grails plugin for database changes (http://grails.org/plugin/database-migration) may be good for inspiration, however the Forge version may not necessarily have the tightly coupled support as the Grails/Groovy domain models have, but something that supports JPA would be fabulous.
> Although a generic plugin for Liquibase or other database change management support could be useful, it would be left 'up to the developer' on how to use it which seems counter-intuitive to a more RAD-style development environment, per the specific of JPA-based data access (potentially OGM-based JPA as well).
> Usecase is for solving how to deploy database structure changes in an automated fashion to ensure the database schema does not go out of sync with the application.
> A Plugin like spring-roo-addon-flyway (http://code.google.com/p/spring-roo-addon-flyway/).
> Could be other Database Migration API that works better on Jboss ecosystem (I dont know if that is one).
