> Today, the connection (database or otherwise) credentials is wide open in
> data-config.xml. Not really an issue until someone sends out the config file
> outside of the server.
> We should look into externalizing the database lookup or providing a way to
> encrypt the username and password.
> The needs are:
> 1/ Some projects want to enable multi-tenancy where data for each core is
> situated in different database servers w/ their own credentials. We need a
> way to expose hooks that will allow implementations to be plugged in. It can
> be done though the "type" attribute on the dataSource, but providing a
> factory might work better.
> 2/ Most orgs are very protective of their credentials and weary of
> plain-text settings.
