Steve Ebersole closed HHH-3125.
-------------------------------

    Resolution: Rejected

I don't see the benefit.

First, how can a sequence value be a floating-point value in the first place?

Second, IdentifierGenerator is an extension point; writing a custom impl that delegated to the standard sequence generator and wrapped the sequence result in a BigDecimal should be trivial.

> Currently with using BigDecimal as entity id is thrown exception " this id generator generates long, integer, short or string" - class "IdentifierGeneratorFactory".
> Is there possibility to add BigDecimal support for id generator?
