This might be better logged as a feature request, but I wanted to
check that I hadn't missed something first.

Given something like this:

PersonProxy person = context.create(PersonProxy.class);
person.setName(name);
context.persist().using(person).fire(..... etc.

In the call to:

onSuccess

person.getId() == null

Even though of course the persistence layer assigned it an ID.

Seems like it would be pretty useful to have GWT RF not necessarily
transmit every person property back to the client after a successful
persist, but certainly getting the ID back to the client would be
useful.  For example, after the successful persist, let's say I want
to restfully navigate to a PersonPlace and use the person's new ID
(assigned by persistence layer) in the token?

As it is for that case, which will be pretty common in a rest style
CRUD app, I'd have to create a static method like:

createPerson(String name)

then return a PersonProxy.  But that seems to defeat the purpose of
having context.persist() around for more complex objects where you
don't necessarily want to create a giant factory method.

Anything I missed, or should getting the persisted ID back to the
client be a feature request?

Thanks.
