"current date" would need to be a Hibernate defined token. Oracle uses "sysdate" for the current date/time Postgres uses "now" .... etc, etc, IMHO, I think the token "now" would be good to use, since its a little more intuitive than sysdate or most other timestamp tokens out there. For example, when looking at the tokens "sysdate" or "CURRENT_DATE" does that just mean an SQL date and not a timestamp? In Oracle it doesn't. What about tokens like "CURRENT_TIME"? Does that just mean an SQL time and not a timestamp? Maybe tokens like CURRENT_TIMESTAMP or "now" make more sense for the current system timestamp....
