Support not-found="ignore" for <any> mappings
---------------------------------------------

                 Key: HHH-3475
                 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-3475
             Project: Hibernate Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: core
    Affects Versions: 3.3.0.SP1
            Reporter: Felix Gnass
            Priority: Minor


It would be useful if the <any> element would support the not-found="ignore|exception" setting. Due to the nature of any-mappings it's impossible to use on-delete cascades at the database layer, so it's very likely that ObjectNotFoundExceptions occur. 

Currently the only work-around to gracefully handle such situations seems to be the implementation of a custom EntityNotFoundDelegate that doesn't throw an exception.
