Allow JPA Connector to be generic (not require hibernate)
---------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: DNA-610
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/DNA-610
             Project: DNA
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: Connectors
    Affects Versions: 0.6
            Reporter: John Ament
            Priority: Minor


Allowing the use of any JPA provider (not just hibernate) would make it easier to use the JPA connector on other app servers - e.g. glassfish, weblogic, etc.  There is no direct dependency on hibernate's features in the jpa connector, other than using their Ejb3Configurator.  It looks like the config settings could be done in such a way that the persistence.xml could be provided by the bundling application.  Design of it should probably be discussed a bit more thoroughly, and hopefully come up with a way that it can be automatically bootstrapped by the container, instead of the way configuration is done now.

I'm willing to provide the implementation of this if you'd like.
