I'm not sure that this is a good idea without having a switch to be
able to turn it on/off.


Hm. Bean generation is turned off by default. If you do not want to transfer them over a network, you will typically not use them. They are of no use if you use them in the same jvm, as they are just a subset of the properties of the "normal" Torque object (only that they do know nothing of a database). And if you want to transfer them, they should be serializable.

With the beans suddently be serializable, you buy a whole wealth of
possible problems with e.g. beans ending up in Servlet container
sessions that in turn get serialized at restart time.

Adding this in a RC is IMHO a bad thing, either. This is 3.3 stuff
(because it could break existing code in a new and exciting way...).

Beans came in first in 3.2-RC1. I would expect that things which came in new can change over the Release process, but maybe I am wrong there.

Henning, if you still think that the serializable should be configurable with default to "off", no problem with that. Just reply and I'll do it.
