We want to enhance it a lot. But we are not sure if this is a good idea
to invest into current implementation, which is also in Perl that we
would like to get rid of entirely.


Well spacewalk-dobby has never really been made to work with OracleXE. For Spacewalk we have always had the database be managed independent of the Spacewalk application.

Obviously this is different in Satellite, for which this code was written, where at the product level we use it to manage the Oracle DB we ship as part of the Embedded product.

So, I'd say that today, for the Spacewalk project, we have no plans to refactor it - so depending on changes, the Spacewalk community (or even better the PostgreSQL Fedora/OpenSUSE/Upstream) may benefit from changes/enhancements to it.

We also don't like it asks for *oracle* user. :-)
