This feature will be available in Room 2.1.0 https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/62408420#comment27
Released in 2.1.0-alpha01!
Note that you have to add the @CopyAnnotations annotation for it to work
Auto Value: Room now supports declaring AutoValue annotated classes as entities and POJOs. The Room annotations @PrimaryKey, @ColumnInfo, @Embedded and @Relation can now be declared in an auto value annotated class’ abstract methods. Note that these annotation must also be accompanied by @CopyAnnotations for Room to properly understand them.
Following this task, apparently they added support. I assume it will be possible in the future Room release (probably androidx.room version 2.0.0). Still not merged as part of 2.0.0-beta1 though
Now it is possible with the Room database 2.1.0.
You can make this possible by annotating the abstract class methods with @PrimaryKey, @ColumnInfo, @Embedded, and @Relation. The abstract class has to be annotated with @Autovalue.
