I hadn't noticed that HQL projections would do that. It seems useful indeed, but also quite irregular.. I'm not too convinced, I guess I'd be happier if we could express the difference on the method signature's return type.
I tend to agree that we should conform to the list() contract, but this is unlikely to be an welcome change for existing users. If you all agree it's an improvement, I'd schedule such an issue for 6?
