    Even better. Currently we have wrappers for connections, cursors, 
and pools and these would be simpler as subclasses. The wrappers allow 
easy switching between DCOracle2 and cx_Oracle, which are both good 
libraries but currently cx_Oracle appears a little better maintained.

    We won't go out of business without them but they would help.
