Michael,
No it is not valid. The below is valid, I think.
<field name="Insurance.insid" column="INSID" primary-key="true"/>
<field name="Insurance.carrier" column="CARRIER"/>
<field name="Insurance.employee" column="EMPLOYEE">
<foreign-key/>
</field>
JPOX does not support the above syntax, yet.

Erik Bengtson
