[hibernate-dev] Where are the batched fetch statements generated?

fwiw... I have a lot of this implemented locally.  At the moment it is 
"swappable", but I have not yet exposed this as a setting.  Also, I 
only have (1) and (2) implemented.  (2) is implemented by padding with 
the main identifier that triggered the batch load.

Plan is to work on (3) tomorrow, if I do not get to it today.

https://hibernate.onjira.com/browse/HHH-7746 is the issue I am working 
for this.
