[hibernate-dev] Any change of adding generics to Hibernate specific API

[Mihalcea Vlad]

Hi,
Although many rely on the Java Persistence API, Hibernate still offers specific features, like mapping a native SQLQuery result set to a DTO:
.setResultTransformer(Transformers.aliasToBean(DTO.class));
Is it possible to add TypedQuery and TypedSQLQuery, analogous to the JPA specs, so you can use generics with specific API?
Adding new interfaces and some overloaded Session methods wouldn't break backward compatibility.
