Hi Alison, I included this capability in the usertype library which provides Hibernate UserTypes which can be used with Joda Time and JSR 310.

LocalDate instances can currently only be persisted as an SQL TIMESTAMP type, which is too precise for certain types of data. I would like to see a PersistentLocalDateAsDate class that works like PersistentLocalTimeAsTime, but for date values. Is the lack of this feature designed in for some reason or is it just an oversight? I would be happy to supply a patch if needed.
