Addendum: Quoting myself...

Another approach would be to extend the configuration mechanism in
data-management-config.xml.

<destination id="item">
        <properties>
...
        <metadata>
            <identity property="name"/>
        </metadata>
    </properties>
</destination>

Could the identity element be extended with a unsaved-value attribute
akin to Hibernates mapping? So in my case it would read

<metadata>
    <identity property="name" unused-value="0" />
</metadata>

Just my 0.02 Euro on that issue.

best regards,
