And, to be fair, I was exagerating in stating that the DomainService *has* to be regenerated - if the changes to the entity model are small then, given a good knowledge of how the DomainService is constructed (which I don't really have as yet :-{), it's perfectly possible to modify the DomainService code by hand.....

Don't both parts have to have the partial modifier? Although I suppose it would be possible to add the modifier to the generated class. Actually, looking at this a little closer, I see that all the 'metadata' classes are declared as partial and those are the ones that are most likely to need extending.....
