[hibernate-dev] [OGM] Ogm mass indexer, how to convert Tuple/EntityKey to Entity/Id?

I have implemented a solution that gives an entity based on a tuple.
https://hibernate.onjira.com/browse/OGM-273#comment-50082

Note that it does not currently works for MongoDB, but that's waiting
for the dedicated GridDialect method as well as OGM-151. 
Also note that I have no idea how that will work for associations. I
suspect some nasty n+1 is happening as best. Worse case, an exception :)
