generator-jhipster: MappedBy reference an unknown target entity property (bidirecional)

Example my json:

 "relationships": [
        {
            "relationshipId": 1,
            "relationshipName": "Email",
            "relationshipNameCapitalized": "Email",
            "relationshipFieldName": "email",
            "otherEntityName": "email",
            "relationshipType": "one-to-many",
            "otherEntityNameCapitalized": "Email",
            "ownerSide": false
        },
        {
            "relationshipId": 2,
            "relationshipName": "Telefone",
            "relationshipNameCapitalized": "Telefone",
            "relationshipFieldName": "telefone",
            "otherEntityName": "telefone",
            "relationshipType": "one-to-many",
            "otherEntityNameCapitalized": "Telefone",
            "ownerSide": false
        },
        {
            "relationshipId": 3,
            "relationshipName": "Morada",
            "relationshipNameCapitalized": "Morada",
            "relationshipFieldName": "morada",
            "otherEntityName": "morada",
            "relationshipType": "one-to-many",
            "otherEntityNameCapitalized": "Morada",
            "ownerSide": false
        }
    ]
...

Java generate based json:

....
   @OneToMany(mappedBy = "contacto")
    @JsonIgnore
    @Cache(usage = CacheConcurrencyStrategy.NONSTRICT_READ_WRITE)
    private Set<Email> emails = new HashSet<>();

    @OneToMany(mappedBy = "contacto")
    @JsonIgnore
    @Cache(usage = CacheConcurrencyStrategy.NONSTRICT_READ_WRITE)
    private Set<Telefone> telefones = new HashSet<>();

    @OneToMany(mappedBy = "contacto")
    @JsonIgnore
    @Cache(usage = CacheConcurrencyStrategy.NONSTRICT_READ_WRITE)
    private Set<Morada> moradas = new HashSet<>();
....

From what I understand, when you generate a OneToMany relationship between a Driver and his Cars, JHipster expects that the ‘driver’ field exists in the Car. Removing mappedBy = "driver" in the OneToMany annotation in the Driver model might fix it. This or fixing it on the other side by creating the property or relationship.
