Below is a list of issues filed in jira that might be nice to have
implemented in this branch.  This list is not absolute.  What is below
is just a quick run-through of items I saw that seem to be filed
against the entityengine.  Inclusion below does not imply that the
request will be implemented.

Other items could be added in the future; it would be nice to keep
list uptodate as work progresses.

Key:

(svn-name) - owner for item
* todo item
+ in-progress
- done

+ (doogie)DynamicViewEntity(dve)
  + (doogie)support for anonymous-views
    this requires being able to add 'ModelEntity' to ModelViewEntity, instead of just entityName.
  + (doogie)distinct, orderBy, condition
    this is just exposing ModelViewEntity.ViewEntityCondition
+ (doogie)QueryBuilder
  ListQuery query = delegator.query(entityName).useCache(true).distinct(true).byAnd([:]).byCondition().byRelation(relationName).orderBy([]);
  query = query.subList(i, i);
  for (GenericValue value: query) {
    // ListQuery implements List<GenericValue>, and doesn't query the database at all until
    // it needs real values.  At any pointed, you can continue to refilter the query, and
    // it will throw away the result values, so that the query will run again.

    // the pattern used for this is a read-only List, and each manipulator method returns
    // a new copy of the ListQuery object.

    // This use-pattern is similiar to perl's DBIx::Class.  I have a tool that was
    // implemented first in perl, but with an ofbiz compatible database, that I then
    // reimplemented in ofbiz entity calls, to get more speed(and better transaction
    // handling).
  }
  * group-by/function
  * complex-alias?
* (doogie)Modify sql code to do something similiar to the above.

+ (doogie)OFBIZ-3959 - Introduce a ModelEntityReaderBuilder to decouple ModelEntity and ModelReader
  I have this already started in another branch, I need to bring it here.
+ (doogie)Combine delegator name fields into a DelegatorName class.
  I have this already started in another branch, I need to bring it here.
+ (doogie)OFBIZ-836 - Bug in SqlJdbcUtil.java regarding outer join in oracle theta join mode
  We have a client that wanted us to use oracle, and I believe this one might be fixed now(in trunk).
+ (doogie)OFBIZ-1232 - Data filtering in entity views
  I am guessing that this is already done, just might need to close the issue.
+ (doogie)OFBIZ-3520 - revision 897605 breaks certain delegator.find() EntityListIterator calls
  This was fixed long ago by David, but the issue never closed.  I actually have a test case in another branch.
* (doogie)OFBIZ-4781 - entitymodel - entity-condition inside view-link does not work
