Seems like a nice improvement. I would lean towards introducing the RetryableLookupFailureException. At the same time, I think we should add catch blocks for more specific subclasses of SQLException, such as SQLTransientException, which would also trigger a RetryableLookupFailureException instead of a LookupFailureException.
