Model-First in Entity Framework 4, or at least what I know secondhand

Today I caught lunch with Olufemi Oyekan and he told me that Entity Framework 4 has a concept called "Model-First" which allows one to create POCOs (Plain Old CLR Objects) and allow Entity Framework to build and update tables based on the created POCOs. In some manner of configuration one specifies which POCOs to use and when the application compiles it will create the tables based on the POCOs if they do not yet exist.

Hmmm.... This idea may or may not be called "Code First" instead of "Model First." I'm not sure yet.
