functionality (maybe we do it with another DbAdapter decorator??) I
guess this feature can be done based on DbGenerator as well, as it is
most useful for the new databases. As e.g. blindly dropping columns in
an existing database may not be what the user wants.

I think the merger stuff (nice name) has some limitations related to
the order the different tokens are performed preventing us from
deprecating DbGenerator.
Within a single entity, different tokens are ordered correctly, but
there may be some problems with several dependent entities and
relationships between them. Before this is fixed/improved, I still
think we need DbGenerator. Sorry.

The new MergerContext stuff is a million times better for my
purposes: to add new tables/columns to the database if the model
changed and the database didn't.
I am very much in favor of doing that. In practical terms it meansØyvind Harboe commented on CAY-1037:
