I'd keep connection() around and not deprecate it, no matter what
better solutions we find for the various use cases. We can hide it in
the API documentation and like we do now, document the problems. It's
just too useful to deprecate it. Also remember the public riots when
JDO 1.0 didn't have an easy way to get a JDBC connection.
