in an ideal world we'd only need one DbFileSystem and
DbPersistenceManager implementation
in jackrabbit ;) however, certain (more or less subtle)
vendor-specific differences/features
needed to be addressed in specialized subclasses.

OracleFileSystem is just an example of this. the oracle jdbc drivers
prior to version 10.?
only exposed Blob support through vendor specific classes, hence the
oracle.sql.BLOB
reference.
