Though it's interesting, I'm personally against these "too much"
custom hacks. First the de-facto standard in SqlClient doesn't support
any of these, even the MS SQL has option to define i.e. attributes.
Second, it creates another metadata that's merged with real structure.
And last if the information isn't in database structure, you should
probably *very* carefully change you model and only this model, not
any generated from the database. The introduction of i.e. PK_GEN was
driven by lack of metadata support for "autoincrements" in Firebird
(or the common datatypes, i.e. boolean) not to extend anything there.
It also ads a lot of new custom features that I (we) have to keep
compatible with new versions of EF and maintain. And as EF isn't under
our control, we don't know what will MS change etc.

Though it's possible, why would you wanna mark field as PK if it's not
in database? This may (and will, you bet) strange errors.

Similar to 1).

This doesn't seem like a good idea for me.
