Description

http://jdbc.postgresql.org/documentation/81/connect.html lists the parameters that can be used to setup a jdbc connection with postgres 8.1.
Many of them are not supported by our current datastore.

A workaround seems to give a database name that includes the parameters, something like:

mydb?ssl=true

to enable ssl transport, but it's less than ideal. Explicit support for the extra parameters should be added... maybe even as a single parameter,
such as "extraConnectionParams".

This one has been superceded by the connection pooling work. When advanced factories are ready, people will be able to provide their own connection string, and this params will be easiliy fixable
