Yes, I want to use the code generator. But for this (aggressive) iteration 
of our product I wanted to as quickly as possible show that it was viable 
to use jOOQ. I figured I could get the same functionality and save lots of 
time by not figuring out how to set up classpaths and build scripts and 
integrate the generator into Maven, etc. I just wanted a 
quick-and-straightforward way I could test and prove jOOQ, and then if it 
worked I could come back in the next iteration and set up code generation 
going forward.

I'll have to admit the results were mixed: not only was a major, useful 
feature broken (RETURNING), the workaround (curval()) wasn't implemented 
without doing yet *another* workaround (SequenceImpl). In hindsight maybe 
it would have been quicker to learn how to generate the classes. But that 
is only because of jOOQ limitations---how was I supposed to know the 
features *I* needed didn't work without class generation? Anyway, that's 
the story. Back to coding. Thanks again for the help.
