When user 2 gets the VDB, and not sharing containers
1) he has choice to define the CF for the names defined under "vdb.xml"
in his container.
2) If user 1 can also pass in the "-ds.xml" files for the CF, he can
deploy them along with the vdb
The concern here is definitely when the 2 users are NOT sharing the same container. How
would user 2 know which connector to hook up a new CF to? IOW, how would he have any clue
the source type should be Oracle, for instance? Do we have to include *-ds.xml files to
accomplish this? Thus far, we haven't been planning on doing this...
