Unless I'm misunderstanding, you're trying to map the same class twice? I
don't think that would be supported.
You could try asking in nhusers for other opinions/suggestions.

Subject: [nhibernate-development] Regarding NH2903
Some days ago I opened an issue about wrong behavior of
Session.CreateFilter(..). The behavior happens only with collection of
elements ( not entity )
The reason is this:
if (IsFilter())
{
// Handle collection-fiter compilation.
IQueryableCollection persister =
_sessionFactoryHelper.GetCollectionPersister(_collectionFilterRole);
IType collectionElementType = persister.ElementType;
if (!collectionElementType.IsEntityType)
{
throw new QueryException("collection of values in filter: this");
}
And a better explanation is that the filter is just a mangled query
around the entity collected, if there is no entity, such a query can't
be created. So in real life I used two mapping for the child, one as
element that I use when I update and work with the root entity in
memory ( this achieve better performance ) and one as entity that I
use when I want to do fancy GUI stuff. The final question is, can I
add a "shadow entity" to the current NH mapping, to temporary map the
element as an entity, in order to have the CreateFilter working with
elements too, or is such a strategy totally forbidden ?
