Generating EMF model with virtual attributes [message #601749]

My understanding is that an EMF generated model implementation can have
either java attributes, or virtual attributes. By virtual I mean
attributes that are not defined in java code, but give rise to accessible
slots in an EObject which can be accessed via eSet and eGet. Is it
possible to generate an EMF model implementation such that all the
generated attributes are virtual? Clearly this is not the most efficient
way of accessing slot values, but it does provide a more unified protocol
and it would remove the need to override eSet and eGet in subclasses of
EObject.
