Hibernate use Metadata at *runtime*, there is no hbm generation.

What is the benefit of this over XDoclet tags? I find the XDoclet tags already in use _much_ easier to read and understand than these.... Any reason for supporting JSR-175 other than "its cool cause now the JDK will support it"? The only benefit I can see is that JSR-175 supports class-level or runtime-level inspection of annotations (as opposed to XDoclet's source-level inspection). But will Hibernate ever use that level of inspection? I suppose that once the annotations are finished and a Hibernate user is using JDK 1.5, then the benefit is that they don't need XDoclet to generate hbms. Do you guys want to spend all the effort of supporting JSR-175 if that is the main benefit when XDoclet already does a good job?
