For the benefit of all DS Data users who prefer persist() and merge()
over save(), I propose to extend the Data API by something like this:
public interface FullEntityRepository<E, PK extends Serializable>
extends EntityRepository<E, PK>, EntityManagerDelegate<E> {
}
public abstract class AbstractFullEntityRepository<E, PK extends
Serializable>
extends AbstractEntityRepository<E, PK>
implements EntityManagerDelegate<E> {
}
I don't really care about the exact class names (Full, Extended, you
name it), the point is that end users can simply write
public interface CustomerRepository extends
FullEntityRepository<Customer, Long> {}
to get access to all EntityManager methods.
What do you think?

Harald
