it can be via new API field, like 'newinit' -- it is anyhow needed only 
in one or few places, so the other modules using the DB API will not 
change, just the db conenctors.

My concern is actually about the fact that the user will have to know 
that a module requires internally new connections for same db url. From 
my point of view, the user knows that the module has to interact with 
the database and set a DB URL parameter for that.

Jan Janak had also a point about the URL format, the '*' not being 
really right and safe used as part of schema.

Therefore two things here:
- do we need to specify from config whether it has to be a new 
connection or not? If it is mandatory to work properly, then it is not a 
configuration option
- how do distinguish from asking a pooled and non-pooled connection. If 
we need non-pooled is needed to be specified via a config option, then 
we should do it according tot he URL format, otherwise, should be 
something internal, with no change in the existing DB url syntax.

It might be true right now, but even supporting raw_query, it may not 
have support for transactions. Raw query support can be implemented also 
for non-SQL. Relying on another generic API member to assume globally an 
existing specific feature, looks a bit odd for me.

I don't know, right now it just feels that such extensions are more 
appropriate as API members and implemented inside connectors. It has 
also the benefit of being able to control better the behavior, if what 
Klaus pointed is needed, like disabling auto-reconnect.

The feature is there, reworking a bit during the testing does not mean 
new features, so it is not a presure to change everything right now. But 
we should do the right decision so we don 't need to change in short term.

Cheers,
Daniel
