Peter Friese commented on MISC-36:
----------------------------------

I once introduced the SUIDD stuff, because I needed it for Spring remoting.=
 Of course, ClassifierFacade is a little too generic for this Java feature =
- back then I was looking for the most generic place to put this logic, to =
be honest.

Having the SUID on all serializable objects would satisfy the compiler, but=
 one has to be careful: I am using a simplified algorithm to calculate the =
SUID and this algorithm does indeed return other results than the serial ve=
rsion generator of the JDK! In order to give users the chance to lock the S=
UID, I have introduced a tagged value (@andromda.serialVersionUID), so that=
 you can define the SUID to be used.

Having the SUID in all serializable classes would be a clear plus in my poi=
nt of view.
