Setting the role is a problem, if you must use an abstraction layer for accesses
to the database that you are not allowed or able to change.

The abstraction layer handles all database specific features.

Setting the role with the URL would mimic the behaviour of DB2 to be able to
set the 'search_path' to the database tables automatically with the connection parameter
'currentSchema'.

Roland.
