Yea, there really is NOT a way to do this with JAXB. Jaxb doesn't call the writeCData method on the XmlStreamWriter at all, ever. (I just grepped the source). The ONLY way I can see to do this would be write a XmlStreamWriter wrapper that wraps the "real" writer and keeps track of the element it's in and if in the appropriate element, foward the writeCharacters calls to writeCData calls instead. Not sure how worth it that would be.
