Provide the ability for MDM Workbench to support extension attributes of type XML

Both DB2 and Oracle support the XML datatype. MDM Workbench does not support creating extension attributes of type XML. Supporting attributes of type XML provides more flexibility in extensions. Currently the only supported XML extensions are out of the box objects. Currently you would need to edit the generated code and DDL to change the type to XML. This tedious process has to be repeated every time you regenerate the code.
