Re: [hibernate-dev] JPA Compliance

Where the JPA way is questionable, let's add one configuration: hibernate.jpa.compliance with multiple modes: - strict: we do whatever the JPA standard says we should do, like throwing an exception when trying to close the EMF twice - native: we bend the rule where we don't agree with the standard Maybe we should expose all those cases and group them in some interface to allow the user to customize the level of compliance they need.
