OK. The point that this raises is that my understanding of the "split" JDO-ORM was to separate the ORM part out (by ORM I mean the part that can be specified in the ORM metadata file) since it best practice to restrict schema-info to MetaData (and not have it in annotations). So we would then have 2 sets of annotations ... some as JDO and some as ORM. I didn't understand this as separating out purely RDBMS-specific concepts that cant be used elsewhere. If we go down that route, what do XML datastores use ? Or LDAP ? e.g specifying an index name, is specifying something specific to the datastore in use (which may not be usable in other datastores).
