Well what do you know, so does Sybase EAServer 3.6.1! And we go even further,
we enable it by default (all fields value comparison) and allow it to be
disabled (or to use a timestamp column) for each CMP entity bean.

I am constantly surprised by the number of times I see BMP entity beans that do
not account for update conflicts. When you consider that EJB 1.1 did away with
most of the useful forms of declarative transaction isolation, it is quite
worrying.
Fortunately some of the vendors care enough to account for these problems with
their CMP engines!
