Ok, well then it's a feature request I guess. I'd expect that enhanced entities behave the same as non-enhanced entities regarding the lazyness of loading state from the dbms. Is that reasonable? There apparently is logic in place for handling lazyness of bytecode enhanced entities via LazyToOne(NO_PROXY) which as far as I understood would make to-one relations lazy in case of bytecode enhanced entities. I don't understand how that differs from making an entity lazy in general or am I missing something?
