Thanks for the corrections, suggestions, and comments everyone!

@twic Thanks for the correction. Didn't know this wasn't a Hibernate but instead a Spring Data feature :-)

@watt You're right, I could've added an offset/limit. Wasn't the main point though (readability was).

@vitro Depends on the approach, but it won't be done /for you/, the mapping is a manual step (grab field X, etc.).

@piokoch, nice suggestion. Of course in the real world we work in teams and some people will prefer this ;-)
