That works until you want to add logic without breaking existing interfaces.

Play!Framework 2 for Java is awesome in this matter. You write public members, but at compilation it transforms them into private members with getters and setters (if not final). It means if you write the setter, it overrides the default one.

Lombok does the same ;)

Can you clarify? I've heard similar negative feelings from devs. What's wrong with lombok?
