I don't feel pre-fixing with '_' for member level attributes is really
necessary, particularly if you're using an IDE. I can see how it would
help someone using only vi or emacs recognize what was what, but with
the color code and hotkeys and quick-clicking available in IDE's, it
just doesn't seem necessary.
Plus, Eclipse does the same thing you're describing in terms of
getter/setter generation. For instance...
private String _blah; // the following accessors were generated.
public String get_blah() {
return _blah;
}
public void set_blah(String _blah) {
this._blah = _blah;
}
I don't know whether IntelliJ figures this out or no.

eliminating the first _ from attribute names to build its default coumn

The default column names are mandated by the JPA specification. And
unless you're using OpenJPA-specific mappings, you shouldn't have to
use OpenJPA-specific annotations just to rename columns. The JPA spec
includes standard annotations for naming the columns in all standard
mappings.
