Yes, that concerned me. Whether possible or not, I see this as bad
practice in general. On the other hand, allowing cx_Oracle to register
itself as databases.cx_Oracle - which is the basic "namespace"
functionality - is something I feel is important. (I have no idea if
the cx_Oracle author would want to do this, but I think the option
should be available).
