	// The easiest way, with the introduction of the new runtime-metamodel classes, would be the

	//          org.hibernate.metadata.EntityModeMetadata and org.hibernate.metadata.Property
	//      2) What is now termed a "PropertyAccessor" stores any values needed from those two
	//          pieces of information
	//      3) Code can then simply call PropertyAccess.getGetter() with no parameters; likewise with
