Grails 3 domain class composition - grails

Question

With Grails 3.2.5, hibernate 5.1.2 core.
I have a legacy database that has several clobs in a table. In order to avoid eager fetching, in earlier versions of Grails I defined a domain class that contained only those clobs in order to make them accessed via an (apparent) association which could then be lazily fetched. A sketch of the setup:
class Comment {
String someField // eager
CommentText cmntText // lazy
static mapping = {
id column: 'COMMENT_ID', generator:'sequence', params:[sequence:'cmnt_seq']
}
In a separate domain class file:
class CommentText {
String userComment
static mapping = {
table 'COMMENT'
id generator:'assigned'
userComment sqlType:'clob'
}
As noted, clob column 'user_comment' exists in the single table 'COMMENT'.
In 3.2.5, when doing this I get an error that column 'comment_text_id' is not defined in table 'comment'. This didn't use to be the case, nor should the field have to exist.
On a similar note, in another case I define a composite domain class (a class defined in the same file as the actual domain class). In this case too I get an error about a missing id:
class A {
B b
}
class B {
String someField
}
In this case I get an error saying that field b_id is not in table 'A'. But - it's supposed to be embedded composition, it should not be there.
I'm building within Intellij if that is relevant.

With GORM 6.1 this is now possible with a single domain class
import grails.gorm.hibernate.annotation.ManagedEntity
import static grails.gorm.hibernate.mapping.MappingBuilder.*
#ManagedEntity
class Comment {
String someField
String userComment
static constraints = {
}
static final mapping = orm {
id {
generator("sequence")
params(sequence:'cmnt_seq')
}
userComment = property {
lazy(true)
column {
sqlType 'clob'
}
}
}
}
