So is it now possible to combine the extent concept with a mapping on
multiple joined tables? What would be the expected behavior in such a
scenario?
<class-descriptor class="BaseClassThatCouldBeConcrete"
table="BaseClassTable" >
<extent-class class-ref="SubClass" />
...
</class-descriptor>
<class-descriptor class="SubClass" table="SubClassTable" >
...
<reference-descriptor
name="super"
class-ref="BaseClassThatCouldBeConcrete"
auto-retrieve="true"
auto-update="true"
auto-delete="true" >
<foreignkey field-ref="..." />
</reference-descriptor>
</class-descriptor>

That's why I wrote the test case. Maybe you can rephrase this section in
release-notes, or much better finding a solution for the problem ;-) I
will check in my changes (first alpha version) for this kind of
inheritance today plus some new tests. But it will not solve the problem
described above.
