By the way, I'm using Cayenne 3.1M4-SNAPSHOT.

I wish it were this simple. But the problem lies in
DataContext#newObject(String entityName)
once it has created an instance of my POJO, it type casts it to
Persistent:
object = (Persistent) descriptor.createObject();
This *forces* my POJO to implement Persistent.
Is there another way to create an instance of my POJO ?
Why doesn't Cayenne support composition over inheritance? I think
the idea of containing the CayenneDataObject as suggested provides
much greater flexibility... and you generate these classes, anyway.
