Don't misunderstand me. We shan't be droping support for an Entity backend. The whole thing needs to be pluggable. Hibernate should just be default.
The benefits of hibernate: No ejb interface hell :-) -- a cleaner concept of caching, more fine grained control and its just faster. Its the closest thing to pojo persistence to date. What sucks about hibernate: I don't like having to programatically deal with the session object, transactions and the like. No deployer for JBoss yet (you have to sar it all up with hibernate. The way it ties in kind of violates the ejb spec more or less. What we need is a HibernateDeployer which reads a hibernate.xml. We need a session manager mbean which lets you hide session management from you . We need an interceptor which works with the session manager mbean. Etc etc... This is the general things that JBoss needs with regards to hibernate as well...
