In the hibernate document<http://www.hibernate.org/hib_docs/reference/en/html/mapping.html>:
entity-name (optional, defaults to the class name): Hibernate3 allows a class to be mapped multiple times (to different tables, potentially), and allows entity mappings that are represented by Maps or XML at the Java level. In these cases, you should provide an explicit arbitrary name for the entity. See Section 4.4, “Dynamic models”<http://www.hibernate.org/hib_docs/reference/en/html/persistent-classes-dynamicmodels.html>and Chapter 18, *XML Mapping* <http://www.hibernate.org/hib_docs/reference/en/html/xml.html>for more information. In the NHibernate-2.0.1GA documentation, the entity-name attribute is not documented. So the NHibernate guys decided to ignore this feature?
