There won't be a xwiki database any more. All the data will be stored  
through the JCR implementation we use. It'll be up to you to decide  
what you want the JCR implementation to point to through configuration.

I mentioned Jackrabbit because this is what our proof of concept uses  
but we might use eXo Platform, JackRabbit or some other  
implementation. XWiki will use the JCR API so it can use any JCR  
implementation (theoretically at least).

Nope. This is 1.2 stuff.
