Thought I did some of the ground work for uDig, and back ported it as a process
for GeoTools. Still excellent functionality to have :-)

Thanks Andrea, I know docs are a pain but I am fond of them. So easy for much
of the library to lurk unseen like an iceberg.

You could consider it for extension then? (i.e. additional functionality built
onto of the core library).

Actually that is valid, if you look at pre generalised feature support, the
connection parameters are used to "lookup" other stores in the hosting
application's catalog.
