Hi Martijn, I've given more thought to this, and even when the optional=true is supplied and Hibernate knows there cannot be a null FK on the child-side, the Persistence Context still needs the child identifier. Once an entity is managed even if it is a Proxy and not an actual entity, Hibernate needs the entity identifier to later fetch the association lazily.
In this case the only workaround is to use bytecode instrumentation and make the parent entity a Proxy so that the child entity is only assigned upon first access. The optional=true is also only a JPA hint and Hibernate uses it to validate that the child entity is set upon persisting, so it doesn't really target this particular use case only.
