User.find(By(User.email, “foo@bar.com”)) // legal
User.find(By(User.birthday, new Date(“Jan 4, 1975″))) // legal
User.find(By(User.birthday, “foo@bar.com”)) // compiler error

Only downside is you won’t be able to refactor those property references via tools. At least not yet.

My code is going to be well tested either way so I’m not too fussed about how it is implemented.

Use Ruby if you want Ruby; Java if you want Java.

That’s just my opinion. Sorry to be a naysayer.
