Use JPA annotations ?

This is an interesting project. I started exploring ktorm recently and was looking for ways that the mapping boilerplate could be reduced.

Do you think it makes sense to use JPA annotations (like @Entity, @Column etc.) instead of custom annotations like @KtormTable ? It will reduce learning curve for many people coming from java ecosystem and also the annotations are already well thought out.

I am not proposing that ktorm become a JPA provider. There are multiple other projects like EBean which use JPA annotations but are not full-fledged JPA providers.

Yes, we will consider use annotations.
