I'd like to modify XMLDBSource to allow the URI to override the 
credential information. This would allow different users to access 
collections/resources as themselves in eXist (http://exist.sf.net).

Any objections? My first thought is to allow URIs of the form:

xmldb:exist://user:pass@host:port/coll/coll/resource.xml
