It shouldn't bloat the driver by that much. As we already issue a few
queries on startup, I'll add a suggested test, and if that works ok, I
should have UNICODE support done by the end of the weekend.

Peter,

Obviously I agree 100% that supporting unicode should not break existing
applications or code.

How about either a extra parameter to the creation of a connection?

If it is easier to keep this very separate I don't mind a completely
separate jar file/driver at least to start with. After all most people
won't yet be using this feature so why bloat their driver?
