cgen (Ant or Maven variety) support custom templates and generation
modes (either one run per DataMap or one run per ObjEntity):

So you can definitely implement class generation around Cayenne
mapping for your own purposes. A good starting point is Cayenne
default templates located in the distribution under "src/dotemplates/
v1_2". They also contain comments on what variables can be included in
the template, etc.

I'm finding myself generating a lot of Beans that mirror my cayenne

This is crying out for automation and I'm sure a few others would
enjoy it. It may even make Cayenne very GWT Friendly.
To move this ball forward (for me minimally) can anyone point me to
either some sort of sample implementation of Cayenne velocity template
based code generation (or whatever is being used in 3.0) or a pointer
to where in the source code a sample template/generator lives that I
can explore?
