This is the behaviour I expected the first time I used Zend_Db. However,
when I found out that the connection is made only when necessary, I was
more willing to instanciate my $db object in my config file (so it's
only in a single place) since it doesn't connect to my database server
for pages that don't fetch data from it.

That's true Bill, but why not to put that code inside the Framework
itself ?
That way, when setting up a connection via the Factory, the Framework
could try (itself) to connect to the database, and throw an Exception
if it could not, instead of relying on the programmer to do so.

FYI, you can also do this:
$db->getConnection();
No need to execute a dummy query. The getConnection() method
initiates
the connection if one has not already been made.
