I'm certainly no expert, but I would think the place to "normalize" the value is in the place where the pk value is pulled from the database and the place where the pk value is generated. To what it should be normalized is a harder question. Maybe this is adaptor-dependent? Heck, maybe the whole problem is adaptor dependent.
I think it should be normalized to a default (per JDBC spec) Java class derived from JDBC type of the PK DbAttribute. There is a more general issue with DataRow types [1]. As you see this can open a big can of worms. I will log a Jira task to get back to it after 1.2.
BTW, I wonder if my current fix also addressed [2]? It was truly universal :-)
