Hi Jason, Although the generation of the metamodel code is not a requirement of the spec, this specific request sounds more like a bug than a new feature... :-) If the OpenJPA metamodel code generation is not processing the orm.xml file, then it seems like this JIRA should be raising in priority... We'll have to consider this request.
In the mean time, you have a couple of alternatives... If you are a WebSphere RAD customer, or even just use Eclipse with the Dali plugin, you can use the metamodel code generation facility within these tools to process the orm.xml file. Depending on your development environment, this may be an alternative until OpenJPA can update their tooling. I will post this to the JIRA as well.
