To be clear: one of the selling points of Roo as no lock-in. You can use any number of JPA providers, you get code generated which you can customize pretty well via aspect-j (a part of which I would like to see in EO generator so one remove the weird _Foo classes) and you get this without any runtime jars at all. So it's not D2W, but it's probably good enough to be workable. And given a certain company's abysmal track record in supporting enterprise software, it *might* be good enough for some to be actually considered as an viable alternative for WO/EOF.
