Gorm Callbacks on embedded object not called if embedding object has its own callbacks

We have a following struct:

Embedding:

type Embedding struct {
    Embedded
    Name   string     `gorm:"index"`
    <...>
}

Embedded:

type Embedded struct {
    ID        uuid.UUID `gorm:"primaryKey;type:uuid"`
    CreatedAt time.Time `gorm:"index:,sort:desc"`
    UpdatedAt time.Time
}

func (e *Embedded) BeforeCreate(tx *gorm.DB) error {
    if e.ID == uuid.Nil {
        e.ID = uuid.New()
    }

    return nil
}

This worked fine until we need to define a callback on Embedding:

func (e *Embedding) BeforeCreate(tx *gorm.DB) error {
    return tx.Transaction(func(tx *gorm.DB) error {
        <...>
    })
}

Once this is defined, BeforeCreate on Embedded is not called anymore, so we had to put an explicit call like this:

func (e *Embedding) BeforeCreate(tx *gorm.DB) error {
    if err := e.Embedded.BeforeCreate(tx); err != nil {
        return err
    }

    return tx.Transaction(func(tx *gorm.DB) error {
        <...>
    })
}

I think it would be nice if callbacks on embedded called in both scenarios.

I think it's pretty clear why this is happening, and would like to change issue type to question.
