Shawn Clowater commented on ANN-567:
------------------------------------

Do you actually want to change the @Entity one?  There's also at least the dynamicUpdate still on @Entity so you can't get rid of it entirely and I'm thinking there might be considerable code breakage, I know ours would break horribly but since I'd be doing the work it wouldn't be much of a surprise to me.

I'll start with the @Persister at the collection level and let you mull over the @Entity change.  It shouldn't take me that long if I can get some uninterrupted cycles.

> There doesn't seem to be a mechanism to set the collectionPersister property on a Collection via annotations.
> I think the solution is as simple as adding a new annotation, kind of like the org.hibernate.annotation.Entity that would allow the user to specify the persister class and then having the AnnotationBinder parse that when it's parsing the annotations like @Cache, etc.
> If there is a particular name that you would like for the annotation I'll even do it up and provide a patch as I'm going to need it PDQ to continue on my side of things.
