Build Identifier: 

As discovered in https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=312132 the mapping abstraction can currently only handle generic types having a single capital letter as generic type name.

So it would be cool if we'd at least get a meaningful exception in cases that violate that convention. It would be even better if EclipseLink supported generic types with longer names as well.

Reproducible: Always
