AFAIK the true response is: yes, we can. I met some time ago similar application and the reasonable paradigm was to lay on hibernate with simple queries (such as updating a row based on pk or selecting this row), while every more complex query was pulled out to allow for cutting the SQL to the right shape and addition of possible hints. Of course this was more labor-intensive, but not so much, and much less problems on production.
So IMHO this is not so EVIL, assuming reasonably used, while do not remember any positive feedback on the list - any similar experiences?
