    Well, I didn't wanted to have those comments at runtime in memory if
    this is a problem.
    It's enough if they're there only at 'modeling' and generation.

    Many DB tools support comments, and it's very useful, cause in the case
    of "corporate databases" (you were also talking about), in many cases one
    can't work without those comments.

    Any hint's about in what future version of Cayenne such features could be seen?
    (especially the comments?)

    Thanks in advance,

    Ahmed.
