Ok, regarding tranql RAs, the derby ones are pulled in by system-database. The other RAs are pulled in as part of the db-connectors plugin which is part of the eba-tomcat plugin group.
I think we are fine to keep these RAs in, if we want to support these different dbs like db2, oracle, sql server, etc in our web profile assembly.
