> Key: OPENJPA-2589

> Project: OpenJPA
> Issue Type: Improvement

> If I do:
> {code}
> @Externalizer("com.factory.SuperJsonSerializer.toStringFromSuperObject")
> @Factory("com.factory.SuperJsonSerializer.fromStringToSuperObject")
> @Column(name="test")
> private SuperObject object;
> {code}
> Then we can identify introspecting externalizer/factory that the column type
> is actually String and not SuperObject. It then means we can switch the type
> of the object to String and avoid java serialization which will keep the
> database "clean"
> side note: this is sthg to keep in mind for JPA 2.1 converters as well
