Yes. I'm one of the designers of BSS/BFT Application Server and can
change anything.

This one is ok, but have disadvantage of static linking to the driver
or usage of reflection (we already have some reflective calls to work
with Oracle blobs), so it is ok.

Same as the above.

And this is good too, I think even better than above. Something like having
connection parameters as:
"serializable=concurrency",
"repeatable_read=consistency",
"read_commited=read_commited+rec_version+nowait"

Should I take care of this issue or you or Roman will handle it ?

BTW, this would be good default mapping because consistency isolation
is based on table locking and is actually a bit weaker (have more
anomalies) than concurrency mode (but its still confirms to Java
SERIALIZABLE mode specification). Consistency is VERY rarely used.
