Hey, I'm going to assume "no objections" equals "positive feedback" and continue hacking in this direction.

What would be our plan on this? Since the syntax proposed here is strictly a superset of the existing JDBC syntax, I
wouldthink this qualifies as an improvement and it would be backwards compatible with any previous version of the JDBC
connector.
