Matthew T. Adams commented on JDO-598:
--------------------------------------

Maybe we could support ObjectIdentity with a compareTo method like this:

int compareTo(Object that) {
  if (that instanceof Comparable && this.getKey() instanceof Comparable) { /* 
cast both & return comparison */ }
  else {
    return 0; // just return 0 because we don't know
  }
}

Thoughts?
