Could you please expain how this would work?

What about attaching annotations to the class with all of the default or 
fixed values and then customizing the generated EFactory to do something 
like this:

public ClassB createClassB() {
   ClassB instance = new ClassBImpl();
   // look at annotations to determine what needs to be initialized here
   instance.setAttr("someValue");
   // ...
}

Thanks,
