After the initial excitement about JPA callbacks, now I feel like they are not all that flexible (not in the context of Cayenne anyways). At this point I won't suggest deviating from the JPA spec... Unless we entertain the possibility to bag JPA as a goal completely, instead of saying "we'll give it another try after 3.0". But until we "officially" make any such decision, we are bound by the spec in some of the features.
That doesn't stop us adding more callbacks in addition to the JPA ones. Just because we want to keep those, doesn't mean we can't have more useful ones as well. Certainly in ROP the existing callbacks are even less useful. It would be nice to have some useful points of access on both the client and the server.
