- Sentinels to control when the database generates a value

- Massive performance improvements for IN and EXISTS in LINQ queries

- DateOnly/TimeOnly on SQL Server

- Raw SQL queries for unmapped types

- More flexible ExecuteUpdate

- Numeric SQL rowversion properties

- Cleaner SQL through parentheses elimination
