Well keeping in mind that IMO this should be a separate optimizer (I know I
won't be the only one to be leery of ThreadLocals here), users should be
able to specify this one explicitly at the generator-definition site.
Of course not all use cases allow explicitly specifying this, which is sort
of what you are getting at. `hibernate.id.optimizer.pooled.prefer_lo` was
the initial attempt at such use cases based on the original optimizers. At
the end of the day we are really just trying to determine the default
optimizer to use when one was not explicitly specified. Previously this
was just a choice between POOLED and POOLED_LO (hence the boolean). Stuart
is bringing up a new suggestion in this decision point. Really I think the
best option is simply to allow the user to specify the default pooled
optimizer they want to use : POOLED, POOLED_LO, POOLED_LOTL (fugly name).
I see your latest reply now Scott. And I don't think that changing a
previously boolean setting to now accept Optimizer names is the correct
solution. I think we leave hibernate.id.optimizer.pooled.prefer_lo as is,
although possibly deprecate it. We'd add a new config setting for this: `
hibernate.id.optimizer.pooled.preferred`. If not set we fallback to `
hibernate.id.optimizer.pooled.prefer_lo` and what we do today.
