The solutions

When Hibernate creates proxies, server-side validation fails

The problem: Sometimes Hibernate creates proxies (usually by using Javassist) to help to deal with lazily-loaded member fields. When this happens, the automatic validation of GWT with RequestFactory fails miserably.

The solution: Let your locator extend DeproxierDeletableLocator

The DeproxierDeletableLocator.find method automatically deproxies entities in case they are proxies.
