True, but the entire connection mechanism is different: we can't use
the dConnectInfo/dConnection classes without some major changes, as we don't
have any support for connection strings. Those classes are predicated on
dbapi-style connections, and the ODBC classes will require some additional work
to be able to recognize ODBC-type backends and craft the appropriate connection
string instead of setting attributes from the keys.
