I think we should ask our selves, what does a user expect to happen and make that the default. If every JPA implements this with the loaded+fetchgroup style by default, and OpenJPA doesn't that would be quite surprising to users and will most likely result in a lot of lost hours in a debugger.
To be spec compliant, I agree with Abe that "loaded" should stay the default. Providing the other alternatives for the DetachState is great (and it sounds like loaded+fetchgroup would be a nice addition), but our default should be consistent with the spec -- regardless of what the other JPA implementations do. It's much easier to convince customers that we're spec compliant with the defaults than attempting to explain why some other default option is "better for them". Kevin
