First, I think CascadeType should be changed up a bit. Currently it
contains some "aggregate" values (ALL, ALL_DELETE_ORPHAN). I'd like to
keep this limited to just the "atomic" cascade-types. Rather than the
map lookups here based on the enum value, I'd much rather see the enum
expose that "alternate value". For example:

Ok. The cascade style to cascade type map is new to me anyway.
Btw, why do you prefer the "enum expose that "alternate value""
approach?
CascadeStyle cannot be made into an enum. Well, that is if we keep
the
notion of org.hibernate.engine.spi.CascadeStyle.MultipleCascadeStyle to
not do those "aggregated style" checks everywhere throughout the code
base.
OK. I believe you know the code better.
