Ok, so given the initial Super/Sub setup, what we get in SimpleValueBinder#setType is this:
1) The XProperty passed in is defined as follows: a) It is a JavaXProperty speciffically b) Its 'annotatedElement' attribute (not exposed) is the java.lang.reflect.Field for the Super#it field. c) Interestingly, the SimpleValueBinder#xproperty is the same exact instance. Can these ever be different? 2) The 'declaringClassName' passed in to SimpleValueBinder#setType is Sub. So maybe we can leverage that. But org.hibernate.cfg.annotations.PropertyBinder#makePropertyAndValue (the main caller of this method) has explicit handle for null-ness so that makes me nervous. Given the differing rules for resolving converter to use for basic types, collections and composites and the fact that these distinctions are already handled in the PropertyHolder hierarchy, I think it would be better to handle those distinctions there. Either adding a separate method to inject the converter to use (making sure it is called before setType, ugh) or changing the signature of setType to accept the converter to use. PropertyBinder#makePropertyAndValue would then use PropertyHolder#resolveAttributeConverter to pass what it needs to pass. WDYT?
