Ouch! Totally forgot that you have to return the proxy on client side :( Well in that case you probably have to duplicate your validation annotations or implement the proxy interface in your entity as mentioned above. I would go with duplication as the entity shouldn't be a proxy. It should be relatively easy to write a small generator tool that generates proxies for your entities and copies all validation annotations to the proxy interface. Maybe someone has already done it on github/google code.

Couldn't you simply override the methods and refine the return type? (Java has covariant return types)

interface Employee {

  Employee getBoss();

}

interface EmployeeProxy extends Employee, EntityProxy {

  EmployeeProxy getBoss();

}

class EmployeeEntity implements Employee {

  @Override

  public EmployeeEntity getBoss() { … }

}
