What's important isn't eliminating the DBConnection class, but eliminating
references to it.  If DBConnection implemented javax.sql.Connection, then
explicit references to DBConnection would be unnecessary.

Probably because Torque (and turbine) predates commons DBCP.  I like DBCP
and use BasicDataSourceFactory with Tomcat, and have good experiences with
it except for it not closing statements when you call Connection.close().
that was an easy patch, though. :-)
