Hi,


now have some fields marked with "field-type" in the XML (e.g

for specifying it ?

I just looked through the company model and noted that the concrete classes Company.address). Why? The field has its own type so there is no need to specify that. It is typically for use where a field is an interface and so to define the implementation(s) that the field will accept. Is there a reason

Not that I know of.

Looking briefly, it looks like the only cases are for the embedded Address field. Is this what you are referring to?
