Running latest NHibernate version.

If an obect A has a one-to-one with object B, and a new instance of B is created, B cannot be persisted to the database unless it has A as a fully initialized proxy.

This makes no sense, since really all it should need is the primary key from A, which doesn't require the proxy init.

Is this a known general Hibernate issue?

B has a foreign key generator:

<id name="Id" column="Id" type="Int64" unsaved-value="-1">
<generator class="foreign">
<param name="property">ARef</param>
</generator>
</id>

which is the source of the trouble. It appears that the foreign key generator can't operate without a fully instantiated proxy on ARef.
