NHibernate代理验证器在2.1中的更改

Question

Can someone please help me understand the following:

In the previous version of NHibernate (2.0.1) the following property will validate and is compatible with the Castle Proxies:

internal virtual BusinessObject Parent
{
  get { /*code*/ }
}

However, in 2.1 it errors saying that the types should be 'public/protected virtual' or 'protected internal virtual'. I have issues with this because marking a property with 'protected internal' exposes the property to inherited types in OTHER assemblies (effectively protected OR internal). Given that this was never a requirement before, it feels like a bit of a bad requirement to impose now.

Can someone please explain why this requirement is now there and what it is trying to enforce so I can at least understand what it is intending to achieve.

If this restriction is not entirely needed, and I am 100% certain these types of properties will NEVER map to DB properties I am intending to create my own Mashup ByteCode provider using the Castle proxy factory and the Type Validator from 2.0.1. However, I'm definitely open to any advice.

Here's the change and here's the reason for that change. According to the report, it was breaking proxy behavior.
