Yes, today we don't.
But is there any reason for not using the value column name? In fact that's
what my pending PR https://github.com/hibernate/hibernate-ogm/pull/337 does
for MongoDB. Right now it even allows to work with different value column
names for the same table (either in the same or in different
documents/records) but I plan to add a check disallowing this for the sake
of portability to stores with a fixed schema.
