I envision implementing it so it is compatible with existing code, and then see
where people take it.

That sounds like a good idea to me. Do you envision a lot of OOTB
changes or is it mostly WorkEffort for now?

One feature I would like to see in the entity definition is an
"Implements" attribute. The attribute contains an entity name, and it
describes an entity that is to be extended as a NEW entity.
I suggested something like this back in 2004, and the motivation was
similar to the discussion here:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-5740
Sometimes all you need is a date range entity, but your only choice is
WorkEffort - with all of its baggage.
So, we could do something like this:
DateRange
---------
dateRangeId, id-ne*
fromDate, date-time
thruDate, date-time
estimatedFromDate, date-time
estimatedThruDate, date-time
WorkEffort (implements DateRange)
------------------
workEffortTypeId, id
currentStatusId, id
etc...
The WorkEffort entity definition would look something like this:
<entity entity-name="WorkEffort" implements="DateRange" ...>
<field name="workEffortId" implements="dateRangeId" />
...
</entity>
What do you think?
