But what if you think at an enterprise application with 500 or more

Ah :)
I was more thinking one, how would Steve propose to implement the finder method of Home interface. :)
Will the Home always required human-coded finder or will there be a sort of transparent magical trick to provide directy StorageImplem classes.
:-)
This is merlin - that means magical tricks in the dark!
If I were to do this today - I would generate the code for the home interface and storage type automatically. The implementation can be generated as well assuming you adapt a specific mapping strategy - e.g. something like PSS which would suggest that your home type is declaring a specification of its relational to object mapping - i.e. something like a PSDL file (persistent state definition langauge).
