/** could be used as an extension for performing data definition tasks on
	databases, and to control the access rights on database objects.


	<p>
	It may be implemented by a database driver provider, to encapsulate the
	complexity of data definition, and to give a common way for data definition as
	the DDL of most DBMS's differs.
	</p>
	<p>
	At least, the access to the tables of a database should be implemented.
	The implementation of other known database objects like views is optional.
	</p>
	<p>
	To control the access rights of users, there is the possibility to
	implement objects like users and groups.
