If that was an option, believe me, I would. The current implementation
was not designed and implemented due to my lack of understanding of the
loader mechanisms already present in the runtime. The Java runtime
system just does'nt provide a ClassLoader that can be made to follow the
semantics stipulated by the SQL 2003 Java mapping. That was the major
reason.

I have a well functioning solution. The only lacking part is how to
prevent arbitrary user access to the underlying table. I'd really like
your advice on how to do that.
