1. javax.naming.InitialContext class is not ours. It is part of JDK.
2. SelectorContext object is immutable. The first one has
"initialContext == true", the second one has "false". Those are two
different objects.
3. It is usually better to lookup the DataSource once (at startup time
/first access time) and cache the reference locally.
