Using DriverManager on its own is rather worthless in this context, and we can't do much without connection pooling. Of course, the stuff that works via a DataSource would work well in theory since that should always be backed by a connection pooling library like dbcp2. However, it might be beneficial to provide support for that in a separate JAR with extra dependencies. That, or make it optional as usual.
