Re: automatic registration of database?

I agree. Lars is the understanding of intent here correct?

That creates an instance of DatabaseImpl that is never used except to
ensure that the driver installs itself. And I don't think this is much
better than just writing:
DatabaseManager.registerDatabase((Database)
    (Class.forName( "org.xmldb.api.reference.DatabaseImpl").newInstance()
));
Collection = DatabaseManager.getCollection( url );
Maybe the following is already enough to execute your static block (I
didn't test it):
Class.forName("org.xmldb.api.reference.DatabaseImpl");
