The idea, moving forward, is to start pushing the Annotations approach more than we do now. Not to deprecate xml mappings per-se but certainly to start looking at Annotations as the preferred approach. At that point we'd stop developing the HbmBinder code (aside from bug fixes). Note that this is completely distinct from pushing EntityManager use over straight Session use; we are just talking about Annotations instead of externalized hbm.xml.
