According to the documentation this is not true.
This is wat the javadoc (MMObjectBuilder.database), says about retrieving a
reference to the database:
use MMBase.getMMBase().getDatabase() or mmb.getDatabase() instead
This suggests the field MMTable.mmb should be deprecated as well,
MMBase.getMMBase() should be used instead.
This demonstrates also that a reference to an actual MMObjectBuilder
instance is not required to get a database reference.
The choice class vs. instance method is a conceptual rather than technical.
Technically it can be implemented both ways.
